Hyperalgesia and hypersensitivity in patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) can be related to central nervous system (CNS) changes, particularly in the pain pathways. The objective of this study was to examine the neuronal density of the cingulate cortex area (CC) and amygdala in an animal model of colitis.
