Cobblestone appearance of the bowelMay 06, 2020
dr.priya07_DecodedMedicine
Cobblestones are naturally rounded stones (larger than a pebble and smaller than a boulder) with a
characteristic rounded upper surface.
These stones are used in paving streets or construction. The cobble stoned pavements are set in such
a way that the cobble stones are irregularly placed between the surface of the road.
Cobblestone pavement
Crohn's disease is characterised by cobblestone appearance of the intestinal mucosa
involving mainly the terminal ileum and the colon.
In Crohn's disease, similar to cobble stone pavements, the mucosal surface of intestine
shows areas of mucosal island (cobblestone like) interspersed with fissures (like the
road surface in-between cobble stones).
