Ischemic colitis: non-gangrenous, stricturing evolution following haemorrhagic shock, analysis of a case with review of the literature.

Introduction: Ischemic colitis (IC) accounts for more of the half of total diagnosis of gastrointestinal ischemia. It is a challenging condition due to non-specificity of the symptoms at onset, inconstant behaviour and a wide range of clinical gravity with a different therapeutic approach. A classification of IC into gangrenous, stricturing and transient forms can be considered.
