Left-sided Colitis Research Services
Left-sided ulcerative colitis is not a separate entity but a less severe form of pancolitis. In left-sided colitis, the inflammation occurs only on the left side of the colon. It's also called distal ulcerative colitis (UC). Left-sided colitis can cause loss of appetite, weight loss, pain in the left side of your abdomen, or bloody diarrhea. It's not clear why UC works this way. It could be genetic, or immune-mediated, or related to gut bacteria, or the blood supply to the gut, or something else. The primary treatment for left-sided disease is topical 5-aminosalicyclic acid (5-ASA) agents.
