Resumen

Presentamos el caso de una paciente, quien, tras haber sufrido un cuadro de anorexia, presentaba pérdida importante de peso y deposiciones mucosanguinolentas, de un año de evolución. Los signos clínicos, morfológicos y especialmente histopatológicos son compatibles con el denominado “síndrome de la úlcera rectal solitaria”, cuadro que se corresponde con un grupo de enfermedades que con diferentes denominaciones presentan similitud en el complejo clínico y cuyo diagnóstico es anatomopatológico. La buena respuesta al tratamiento quirúrgico, 3 años después de la intervención, nos permite considerarlo una alternativa eficaz al tratamiento conservador cuando con éste no se obtenga la respuesta deseada.

We present the case of an anorexic female patient who presented with considerable weight loss and the presence of blood and mucus in the stools of 1 year’s evolution. Clinical, morphological and histopathological features were compatible with solitary rectal ulcer syndrome. This syndrome encompasses a group of diseases characterized by similar clinical features, and its diagnosis is based on histopathological features. The patient responded well to surgical treatment. Thus, in our view, surgery is a good alternative in the patients who do not respond satisfactorily to conservative treatment.
