: Gastrointestinal diseases are a major cause of morbidity in common variable immunodeficiency disorder (CVID), clinically often mimicking other conditions including celiac disease and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Hence, diagnosis of CVID remains challenging. This study aims to raise awareness and highlight histopathological clues for CVID in intestinal biopsies, emphasizing diagnostic pitfalls for the pathologist/gastroenterologist.

Lymphocytic gastritis (LG) is a rare form of gastritis characterized by lymphocytosis in the gastric mucosa, while microscopic colitis (MC) is the chronic inflammatory disease of the large intestine with lymphocytic or collagenous colitis as two distinct histologic forms. These lymphocytic disorders of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) have various associations, commonly gluten-sensitive enteropathy, infection and while others are less commonly associated. We report a case of a 24-year-old patient with concomitant lymphocytic gastritis and microscopic colitis diagnosed via histopathologic analysis of tissue specimens from stomach and colon.

Background: Microscopic colitis (MC), a chronic intestinal inflammatory disorder characterised by persistent watery diarrhoea, is categorised into collagenous and lymphocytic subtypes. Recent studies suggest that appendectomy influences the risk of MC, although the evidence remains inconclusive. This meta-analysis of available research was conducted to clarify the relationship between appendectomy and MC risk.

The association between primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and microscopic colitis (MC) has been explored in limited studies, suggesting potential shared pathophysiological mechanisms. This systematic review aimed to investigate this relationship by analyzing studies identified through comprehensive searches in PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library. Two studies met the inclusion criteria: a case series of 12 patients and a case report, collectively analyzing 13 cases.
