 It was said that the lesion of 30% of patients with distal ulcerative colitis(left-sided colitis and proctitis)were complicated with appendiceal inflammation called “ulcerative appendicitis”. A 46-year-old man presented due to positivity of fecal occult blood testing(FOBT). The physical and laboratory examinations were normal. Total colonoscopy was performed. Endoscopic findings showed the typical findings of ulcerative colitis only in the appendiceal orifice and showed redness, and tiny erosions in the ascending colon skipped from the appendix. There were no significant findings in the distal colon including the sigmoid colon and the rectum. Histological findings of the biopsy specimen taken from the appendiceal orifice showed typical ulcerative colitis such as mucosal inflammation and crypt abscess. Three and a half years later, TCS and biopsy from the rectum and the appendiceal orifice were also performed. It showed the typical findings of the UC in the rectum and remission in the appendiceal orifice. This case showed that so-called “ulcerative appendicitis” was preceded by UC in this patient.
