Here is what my pathology report came back with:
Stomach, antrum and body specimen: Gastric antral and oxyntic mucosa showing foci or acute and chronic inflammation
Terminal ileum: fragments of granulation tissue and exudate
Colon, right: Focal active colitis and detached fragments of granulaiton tissue and exudate
Colon, left: Colonic mucosa with focal neutrophils in the lamina propria
Colon, rectum: Active colitis with detached fragment of granulation tissue
Negative for H. pylori and cytomegalovirus
Pathology note: The biopsies show a decrease in the number of lymphocytes and plasma cells in the lamina propria. This has been noted in prior specimens and is compatible with the history of CVID.
My GI doctor told me I had inflammation of the terminal ileuem, and strictures consistent with Crohn's Disease. This was right after the colonoscopy and I didn't have the wherewithal to ask any follow-up questions. I was still impaired from the anesthesia, if you know what I mean.
Can anyone decipher this for me? I don't have a medical background.
