AB  - A  20-year-old  man  presents  with  several  days  of  diarrhea  with  a  small  amount  of  rectal  bleeding  with  each  bowel  movement.  This  is  his  second  episode  of  bloody  diarrhea;  the  first  seemed  to  resolve  after  several  days  and  occurred  several  weeks  ago.  He  has  cramps  that  occur  with  each  bowel  movement,  but  feels  fine  between  bouts  of  diarrhea.  He  has  no  travel  history  outside  of  the  United  States.  He  is  of  Jewish  descent  and  has  a  cousin  with  Crohn  disease.  Colonoscopy  shows  mucosal  friability  with  superficial  ulceration  and  exudates  confined  to  the  rectosigmoid  colon,  and  he  is  diagnosed  with  ulcerative  colitis  (Figure  65-1).
