Abstract EN
A 20-year-old female running the Marine Corps Marathon developed diarrhea at mile 12.
After finishing the race she noted that she was covered in bloody stool.
A local emergency department suspected ischemic colitis.
After discharge, her primary care physician instructed her to discontinue the use of all nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
Her symptoms resolved and she returned to running without any complications.
This paper describes the pathophysiology, diagnostic approach, and management options.
