Brief Explanations
- Crohn's Disease is characterized by chronic inflammation of the small and/or large intestines, cobblestone ulcerations along the intestinal wall, and scar - tissue formation. Ulcerative colitis mainly affects the large intestine and has continuous inflammation rather than the patchy nature of Crohn's. Cirrhosis is related to liver damage, and intussusception is the telescoping of one part of the intestine into another.
- The word - part "Ptyalo -" refers to mucus, saliva fluid. It has no relation to a chewer, grinding, or the spleen.
