The findings suggest that early biologic and immunomodulator treatment may reduce the need for first surgery in Crohn's disease, which is directly relevant to treatment planning and expectations for people with IBD.

The findings show earlier and more frequent use of imaging, endoscopic assessment, anti-TNF therapy, and seton placement for active perianal fistulizing Crohn’s disease over recent years — practices that may affect...

This report highlights that Langerhans cell histiocytosis can present with intestinal ulcerations mimicking IBD and may be missed if standard IBD treatments don’t help. Patients with persistent bleeding or nonresponsive...

Early feeding after colorectal surgery can speed recovery and shorten hospital stay and appears safe for most patients with IBD when used within ERAS programs.

Many pediatric patients with IBD receive infusion biologic therapies. Shifts in where those infusions happen (driven by payer policies) can create administrative burdens and raise concerns about safety and care...

Iliopsoas abscess is an uncommon but serious penetrating complication of Crohn’s disease that can present with non-specific symptoms and be missed. The review compiles case-level evidence about presentation, diagnosis,...

People with Crohn’s who have had ileal or ileocolic surgery often worry about needing another operation; this study seeks clinical and biomarker predictors to estimate that risk. Understanding predictors could help...

Faster, reliable reading of capsule endoscopy videos could shorten diagnostic delays and make small-bowel evaluation easier for people with suspected Crohn’s disease. If AI preserves accuracy while reducing review time,...

If confirmed, a simple calprotectin test on fistula scrapings could help predict which Crohn’s patients are likely to heal after primary surgical fistula closure and which may need additional therapies, potentially...

This study helps set expectations about short-term risks after right-sided segmental colectomy for Crohn's disease compared with colon cancer. Knowing that overall complication rates were similar but infections were more...

This study reports that combining an anti-TNF-α drug with vedolizumab helped many children with IBD who failed single-biologic therapy achieve clinical, endoscopic, and histologic improvement. It also notes serious...

Ileal pouch disorders are common after IPAA surgery and cause symptoms many patients will experience. Early recognition and initial treatment by primary care can speed symptom relief and identify patients who need...

First-person stories show the real-life impact of Crohn’s: unpredictable flares, surgeries (including ileostomy), and long recovery can affect education, work, and mental health. Hearing recovery and remission are...

Accurate recognition and standardized reporting of IBD-associated dysplasia help guide surveillance and surgical decisions because some dysplastic variants are flat, endoscopically invisible, and linked to advanced or...

This trial tests a novel cell-derived extracellular vesicle therapy (DB-3Q) for people with Crohn’s disease who have not responded to standard advanced therapies. It may offer a different biologic approach if proven safe...

This review directly compares surgery-first versus biologic-first strategies for localized ileocaecal Crohn's disease and suggests early resection can lower later treatment needs and leave some patients off medication,...

Based on the title and source metadata, this appears to be a clinical study related to Crohn's disease and Procedures and surgery. The original article is from Urology Video Journal.

People with Crohn’s disease who develop narrowing at an ileocolonic surgical anastomosis often need repeated dilation or surgery. This pilot study tests using a self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) as a possible...

Surgery is common in Crohn’s disease and timing may relate to disease severity and long-term outcomes. Understanding factors linked to early surgery helps patients and clinicians weigh risks and expectations after...

DOTATATE PET/CT can show uptake in non‑neuroendocrine diseases, which may lead to misdiagnosis or unnecessary treatments if imaging findings are not confirmed. People with Crohn's disease or other abdominal pathology who...

Distinguishing UC from Crohn’s colitis can be challenging but affects long-term management and surveillance. A histologic feature—homogeneity versus heterogeneity of epithelial lesions across biopsies—might help improve...

People with immune-mediated disease, prior transplants, or those taking strong immunosuppression may care because this report links recurrent airway ulceration after lung transplant to an autoimmune-like process that...

People with IBD have higher risk of several GI and hepatobiliary cancers; imaging is an important complement to endoscopic surveillance for detecting cancers that may be transmural or outside endoscopic reach.

Based on the title and source metadata, this appears to be a video related to Inflammatory bowel disease and Procedures and surgery. The original article is from hmpgloballearningnetwork.com.

Cure8 could only read part of this source from The American Journal of Gastroenterology, so this card uses cautious topic tags instead of a full summary. It is tagged for Crohn's disease, Inflammatory bowel disease, and...

Recurrent delayed bleeding after endoscopic stricturotomy is a serious complication that can lead to repeat procedures or surgery; this case suggests covering the ES wound with polyglycolic acid (PGA) sheet plus fibrin...

Perianal fistulas are a common and often challenging complication of Crohn’s disease. This surgical series provides outcome data on draining seton treatment that may help patients and clinicians understand typical...

This single case shows that bedside ultrasound can detect serious abdominal problems (intussusception, ischemia) early in people with IBD even when initial vitals and labs look normal.

This trial could show whether intra-operative ultrasound can be used reliably to choose the proximal resection margin during ileocecal resection for terminal ileal Crohn’s disease—information that might affect surgical...

Obesity is increasingly common in people with IBD and can affect disease course, treatment response, and surgical risk.

Pathology after fecal diversion can look like active IBD, which affects diagnosis and management of the diverted rectum. This study helps clarify when changes likely reflect diversion alone versus persistent inflammatory...

Nutrition during acute severe ulcerative colitis matters because patients can become rapidly nutritionally fragile, and appropriate feeding and monitoring can affect recovery, complications, and readiness for surgery....

Fistulizing Crohn’s disease is a major complication where durable structural repair is hard to achieve. Regenerative cell-sheet approaches aim to rebuild tissue architecture rather than only suppress inflammation, which...
