A 48-year-old woman presented with bloody diarrhea, exsiccosis, abdominal pain and fever. A CT-scan showed air inclusions and thickening of the colonic wall. Laparotomy revealed partial necrosis of the colonic wall from the cecum to the rectosigmoid junction. After colectomy with ileorectostomy recovery was uneventful. The histological examination showed erosions, ulcerations, necrosis and some abscesses along the colonic wall which were not typical for ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease. The patient reported medication with diclofenac for rheumatoid arthritis. The most probable diagnosis was NSAID-induced colitis. That NSAID may cause colitis has often been described in literature, but there have been only few records on nearly total colon necrosis.
