Terminal ileum images for verification of colonoscopy completion.A letter to the editor is presented in response to the article "Terminal Ileum Images for Verification of Colonoscopy Completion," by S. Pontone and colleagues that was published in a previous issue.S. PontoneA. LamazzaEndoscopy...
Vitamin B12is bound to intrinsic factor during transit through the stomach; separation occurs in the terminalileumin the presence of calcium, and vitamin B12enters the mucosal cell for absorption. It is then transported by the transcobalamin binding proteins. A small amount (approximately 1% of the...

The mucosa between the terminal ileum until the sigmoid and in the rectum appeared normal. Histologic examination of sigmoid biopsies revealed extensive lymphoplasmacytic infiltration of the lamina propria ( Figure B ) with mixed neutrophil infiltration of the surfa ce epithelium and cryptitis ( ...
of non-specific symptoms, mimicking those of irritable bowel disease of Crohn's disease. The authors describe a 57-year-old patient with clinical and radiological features, suggestive of Crohn's disease, in whom the diagnosis was proved to be a carcinoid tumour involving the terminal ileum. This...
The amino terminal sequence of this protein corresponds to a portion of the long ORF beginning at codon 571. The lack of an initiation codon near this sequence indicates that the small polypeptide is most likely produced as a carboxy terminal cleavage product from a 70-kDa capsid protein ...
