30 yof elite runner ran highly competitive marathon
Developed crampy abd pain during race; hematochezia
On OCP-s
Admitted to Hosp
Sigmoidoscopy demonstrated patchy erythema, friability,
exudate in rectum, severe hemorrhagic segmental colitis in
the sigmoid colon.
 Histology demonstrated hemorrhagic necrosis of the
mucosa with stromal hemorrhage, crypt effacement and
mucopurulent exudate
 Pt recd IV Fluids, bowel rest, Abx - DC and did well

marathon. Shortly after, he presented to ED.
After 16 mi began having cramps and hematochezia
CT (contrast-enhanced) revealed thickened and enhancing
cecum and ascending colon, representing ischemic colitis
Admitted to Hosp, given O2, IV Fluids, analgesics
Peritoneal signs developed after 48 hrs
Pt underwent laparotomy, R. hemicolectomy/ileostomy
Operative and histologic findings confirmed ischemic
colitis of cecum and proximal colon
DC well after 10 d; ileostomy reversed later

Article 3 - Review
 In 2002 there were 200 marathons in the U.S.
 30,000 runners in some races ; 43 % over age 40
 More pts presenting to ED-s/clinics
 30-80% of long-distance runners report GI complaints
 16% have had bloody diarrhea after a race or run
 7 previous pts reported in literature with ischemic
colitis (2 men; 5 women; 2 gender not specified)
 OCP-s used in 2/5 women
 NSAIDS used in 3/7 cases
25
Article 3 (cont)
Proposed mechanisms of ischemic colitis:

Mesenteric blood flow (reduced 80% in exercise)
 Mechanical trauma from moving/vibration
 Dehydration ; hypovolemia
 Hyperthermia
 OCP-s
 NSAIDS
 Tegaserod (Zelnorm), a 5-HT4 receptor antagonist
26
Article 3 (cont)
 CT useful to detect colon abnormalities that support
clinical diagnosis of ischemic colitis
 Used to R/O appendicitis, diverticulitis, mesenteric
thrombosis, AAA
 Findings in ischemic colitis: colon wall thickening,
enhancement of mucosa, edema, loss of haustra
27
Article 4
 To R/O mesenteric infarction in pts with pain out of
proportion and peritoneal signs mesenteric angiography is
the procedure of choice
 Abdominal pain and diarrhea are the initial symptoms of
ischemia which usually limit further damage by inhibiting
activity. This threshold may be exceeded during extreme
athletic competition and endurance events
 Ischemic colitis is usually mild but may require volume and
transfusion support, rarely progressing to resection or
stricture
28
Pt Follow Up
 Pt cont to have intermittent abd pains and
hematochezia x 12 hrs
 Diet: yogurt, banana and Gatorade
 Next day, felt NL except for occas abd pain
 VS NL
 Returned to work as an FP Sports Medicine Fellow

Key Teaching Points
1. a. For Acute Abdominal Pain presenting to the ED or FP
Clinic, life-threatening diagnoses must be R/O.
1. b. Along with H & P, Abdominal CT is extremely helpful
in ruling out serious diagnoses in this setting.
2. a. Exercise (Marathon)-induced Ischemic Colitis is a
condition more likely to present to the ED or FP Clinic
during or after extreme endurance sporting events.
2. b. Treatment is IV Fluids, O2, analgesics, rest and F/U.
3. a. Most cases do well, however, serious cases of exerciseinduced ischemic colitis have been documented, requiring
rapid diagnosis, surgical intervention and even colectomy.
3. b. Educate athletes and coaches alike and be vigilant.
