- Abstract
Ulcerative colitis is one of the inflammatory bowel disease. The optimal management depends on a certain diagnosis of the disease, establishing its extent and activity and risk of the severe course. The treatment is based on 5-aminosalicylic acid preparations but glucocorticoids and immunosuppressive agents sometimes are necessary to use. The effectiveness of the therapy is estimated first by the effect on clinical symptoms and later also on the endoscopic picture of the intestinal mucosa. Evaluation of fecal calprotectin levels may be used to assess the effectiveness of treatment, as well.
