Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease shares similar several clinical or endoscopic features with many other enterocolitides. Because of the absence of definite confirmative diagnostic tests, misdiagnosis is frequently made. Careful history taking and physical examinations are the first step to differentiate those diseases. In this chapter, we show differential points of endoscopic features in other enterocolitides from IBD.
