From the Division of Surgery, Boston City Hospital and Boston University Medical Center between ischemic colitis and other types of colonic ab-normality. It is realized that such rigid selection might have excluded some patients with the lesion. but this was felt to be less important than the problem of significant overlap. Our data include only acute colonic disease occuring in a patient with the following characteristics: 1) over the age of 50 and without similar or subsequent episodes. 2) without e vidence of ischemic disease elsewhere within the gastrointestinal tract. 3) not being treated with antibiotics. 4) without evidence of an enteric infection. 5) proctoscopic examination. when positive. indicates an acute mucosal inflammatory disease. 6) radiologic abnormalities. if present. indicate an acute colonic ulcerative or exudative process" which in surviving non-operated patients undergoes evolution to healing or stricture and 7) available histologic specimens dem-onstrating mucosal and/or submucosal destruction, edema or hemorrhage. We recognized that neither the histologic evaluation. nor the barium changes by themselves are specific for this lesion but the criteria used are those which we*"***" and other,"******** have consid-ered as diagnostic of ischemic colitis. As indicated in Table 1, the 55 patients represent 46 with spontaneously occurring ischemic colitis, four with ischemic colitis occurring early after inferior mesenteric artery ligation. one with ischemic colitis occurring as a complication of a colonic obstruction secondary to carcinoma of the sigmoid and 4 occurring late after an abdomino-perineal resection. Analysis of the clinical features is similar whether or not the groups are analyzed as
