Summary[edit]

Description

Colestipol was found in a pancreatic biopsy that was obtained endoscopically via the stomach. It originated from the stomach and contaminated the pancreatic biopsy specimen. Colestipol is the generic form of Colestid® and others; a micronized form of bile acid sequestrant, which is used to treat elevated cholesterol. It is also sometimes given to treat chronic diarrhea after certain intestinal surgeries, and to relieve itching associated with liver disease. This patient was taking the medication for treatment of hyperlipidemia.
