“…Sometimes mucus is observed to come out of the cyst, similar to the findings of our patient. 7 In adults, cystica profunda is often mistaken for mucinous carcinoma and invasive carcinoma. Sakurai et al reported that CCP may also represent premalignant change or the initial pathological features of malignancy.…”

“…Cystica profunda has a high incidence of concurrence with other diseases that tend to irritate the bowel, such as ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, adenomatous polyps, Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, and spastic colitis. 7,9,10 Enteritis cystica profunda has been simulated in rats by suturing the small intestine to the abdominal wall and then exposing the mucosa externally. 11 Other hypothetical explanations for ECP are epithelial downgrowth through ulcerated mucosa, herniation through a weakened muscularis mucosa, re-epithelization of a submucosal abscess, and hemorrhage.…”

Enteritis Cystica Profunda Presenting as Ileoileal Intussusception in a Child: Report of a Case

et al. 2005

We report the case of a 3-month-old male infant with small bowel intussusception caused by enteritis cystica profunda (ECP). The baby was admitted because he was refusing to feed, and was passing "red-currant jelly"-like stools. A palpable mass was identified, and abdominal ultrasonography showed a mass with a lumen and lumen appearance. We performed laparotomy and resected the segment of bowel containing the mass. The resected segment had enteritis cystica profunda, which was considered to have precipitated the intussusception. A review of the English medical literature revealed only three other cases of children with similar symptoms in the last 30 years.

“…Most patients are 30-50 years old, and men and women are equally affected. In most cases, a single, localized lesion is palpable on digital rectal examination, although lesions have been found in all areas of the colon and small intestine (3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9). A more diffuse colonic involvement has also been described, usually in patients with chronic colitis (10,11).…”

Enterocolitis cystica profunda lesions in a patient with unclassified ulcerative enterocolitis

et al. 1994

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Enteritis cystica profunda and diffuse colitis cystica profunda are exceedingly rare conditions. We report here the first case in which these two entities are associated in one patient. This 48-year-old woman presented initially with a solitary ulcer of the rectum and developed later deep ileal and colonic ulcerations with intervening normal mucosa, polypoid masses, and a dense fibrosis of the bowel wall. Colon and ileum specimens demonstrated submucosal mucous cysts and occasionally herniation of mucosal epithelium into the submucosa, which led to the diagnosis of enteritis and colitis cystica profunda. The exact nature of the underlying ileocolonic disease, which necessitated colectomy and extensive ileal resection, remained undetermined although an aggravating role of iterative surgical procedures is possible. Enteritis cystica profunda and diffuse colitis cystica profunda therefore seem to share a common pathogeny and have to be considered as lesions complicating an underlying disease rather than specific and autonomic diseases.
