Idiopathic myointimal hyperplasia of mesenteric veins depicted by barium enema examination, and conventional and magnifying colonoscopy.

A 71-year-old man was admitted to our institution complaining of abdominal pain and constipation. Barium enema examination revealed narrowing, cobble stoning, and longitudinal ulcerations in the sigmoid colon and upper rectum. Conventional colonoscopy, magnifying narrow-band imaging endoscopy, and magnifying chromoendoscopy revealed edematous mucosa, longitudinal ulcerations with luminal narrowing, and multiple pseudopolyps.
