アブストラクト | This is the first scientific report describing lymphocytic colitis after administration of the Pfizer severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccine. The patient developed liquid stools, abdominal pain, and nausea within 24 hours of receiving the second dose. Symptoms were persistent for 3 months but improved 113 days after onset. Laboratory profiles and gastrointestinal polymerase chain reaction were normal. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy and colonoscopy performed 98 days after onset revealed patchy erythema in the descending colon and rectosigmoid. Mucosal evaluation revealed lymphocytic colitis. Review of the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System revealed 5 cases of microscopic colitis after the second mRNA dose. This report and Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System cases suggest providers should consider microscopic colitis in the differential diagnosis of patients with severe, persistent diarrhea after the SARS-CoV2 mRNA vaccine. |
