Perianal fistulas are a common, challenging Crohn's complication that often need combined medical and surgical care; understanding local practice patterns helps patients and clinicians anticipate typical treatments and...
Perianal fistulizing Crohn's disease causes major quality-of-life problems and is often hard to treat. This trial tests risankizumab in people who did not respond to or could not tolerate other standard therapies, and it...
Perianal Crohn’s disease causes major symptoms and affects long-term outcomes; understanding surgical options and the role of combined medical–surgical care can help patients and clinicians plan treatment. The review...
Perianal fistulas cause significant morbidity and often need both medical and surgical treatments. Newer drug options and updated guideline support earlier use of advanced therapies, which may improve healing and reduce...
Perianal fistulizing Crohn's often causes significant symptoms and requires both medical and surgical approaches. Newer biologics and JAK inhibitors expand treatment options and guidelines increasingly support earlier...
Setons are a common surgical tool to manage draining perianal fistulas in Crohn’s disease by keeping tracts open for drainage and reducing infection. A low-cost, catheter-based seton option could be useful in settings...
Malnutrition was common in this group and linked to lower fistula healing and a higher chance of needing proctectomy or abdominal surgery — outcomes that matter to people with perianal Crohn’s disease.
Setons are often used to control sepsis in complex anal fistula, but this study suggests outcomes are worse when Crohn's disease is present, meaning clinicians may view long-term setons as temporary measures in CD rather...
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...
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...
Perianal fistulas are a serious, common complication of Crohn's disease that are often difficult to heal. This study tests a real-world combination of surgery plus an approved IL-23 inhibitor (mirikizumab) to see if...
Perianal fistulas in Crohn’s disease are hard to treat and preserving continence is important. Long-term data suggesting laser ablation can achieve sustained healing in some patients are relevant for treatment decisions.
Anal fistulas are a common and often painful complication of Crohn’s disease that usually need medical or surgical treatment. Managing the underlying Crohn’s with biologic therapy is often necessary for fistulas to heal....
