Abstract
Acute severe colitis (ASC) is a potentially life-threatening event. Optimal timing for second-line treatment in children is mainly based on the clinical score Pediatric Ulcerative Colitis Activity Index. The aim of our study was to evaluate the potential role of bowel ultrasound scan (BUS) in predicting the need of second-line therapy in ASC.
