	3	Two sites of ulceration and inflammation

	5–10	Damage extended to >2 cm along the length of the colon, increasing the score by one for each additional centimeter of damage
Adhesion	0	No
	1	Mild: colon could be easily separated from peripheral tissues
	1.5	Medium: part of colon could not be separated from peripheral tissues
	2	Severe: colon could be hardly separated from peripheral tissues
