Relating to or located upon the colon, the large intestine.
From Greek 'epi' (upon) + 'kolon' (colon) + '-ic' (relating to). A medical term describing structures, conditions, or features affecting the colon.
The colon is surprisingly complex—'epicolic' refers to things on its surface, while 'colic' refers to its pain, showing how the same Greek root 'kolon' generates different medical terms for different purposes.
