- Abstract
Data on collagenous colitis (CC) and lymphocytic colitis (LC) have been based on retrospective studies of registries of patients from multiple hospitals. Such studies may induce a selection of patients with severe forms of the disease, and conclusions about the clinical spectrum of the disease and treatment efficacy are difficult to be drawn. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical features, response to treatment, and long-term follow-up of CC and LC in a large group of patients prospectively diagnosed in a single center.
