Hematoxylin-eosin staining of the intestinal mucosal. (A) Hematoxylin-eosin staining of the colonic mucosa before colectomy. Colon pathology showed mucosal erosion, ulcers, cryptitis and granulation tissue hyperplasia. (B) Hematoxylin-eosin staining of the intestinal mucosa after colectomy. Ileum pathology showed villus atrophy and shortening, mucosal erosion, cryptitis with irregular crypt structure and infiltrated lymphocytes and plasma cells. (C) Hematoxylin-eosin staining of the intestinal mucosa after after 1 year of ustekinumab treatment. Ileum pathology showed a reduction in lymphocytes and plasma cells compared to before, with regular crypt structures.
