Ischemic colitis in marathon runners: a case-based review.

In the United States over 450,000 participants finished a marathon in 2002. Some of them will present to an Emergency Department (ED) with a variety of gastrointestinal complaints.

Gastrointestinal complaints with emphasis on mesenteric ischemia and ischemic colitis are discussed.
