case_images: Abdominopelvic CT scans (axial and coronal views) demonstrating pancolitis (blue arrow) with a stricture in the mid-descending colon (white arrowhead) and dilated large bowel loops proximally.

case_images: A contrast-enhanced computerized tomography (CT) scan of the abdomen and pelvis demonstrated pancolitis, multiple diverticulosis throughout the length of colon, and radiological features of a large bowel obstruction with a potential stricture in the distal descending colon (Figure 1).
case_images: Colonoscopic pictures of an (a) inflammatory stricture, oedema, and (b) punched-out ulcers at the descending colon. Biopsies returned nonspecific reactive changes.

case_images: A colonoscopy demonstrated ulceration and oedema of the left colon with an inflammatory stricture that was able to be traversed (Figure 2).
case_images: 10x hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stain of the colonic stricture showing mild eosinophilia within the lamina propria.
