Material and methods: Between 2008 and 2018, patients who underwent colonoscopy and ileal biopsy in our Endoscopy Unit were investigated. We evaluated patients with right iliac fossa pain, diarrhoea, and anaemia as well as patients with a high incidence of suspected inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and high ileal abnormality in patients undergoing colonoscopy (group A). Patients with other indications were included in another group (Group B). Results: A total of 479 patients were planned for TI according to their symptoms and colonoscopy was performed. Both microscopic and macroscopic findings were found to be more prevalent in patients with right iliac fossa pain, diarrhoea (group A), and rectal bleeding, and significantly different from patients with other symptoms (group B) (p |
