Fourteen examples of carcinoma developing in the colon or rectum were encountered in a series of 1008 patients with Crohn's disease treated in Aberdeen during the 34-year period, 1955-1988. Seven patients were under 55 years of age at the time of onset of Crohn's disease, and had a long history of the disease before carcinoma supervened. Older patients had short histories and a better prognosis. One squamous carcinoma may have arisen in relationship to a fistula in ano.

Approach to Therapy for Chronic Pouchitis.
Annu Rev Med
January 2025
Department of Medicine, University of California San Diego, La Jolla, California, USA.
Chronic pouchitis (CP) occurs in approximately 20% of patients with ulcerative colitis after total proctocolectomy with ileal pouch anal anastomosis and is categorized as antibiotic dependent, antibiotic refractory, or Crohn's disease-like. The management of CP is challenging because of limited evidence and few randomized controlled trials. In this review, we discuss the medical management of CP and its supporting data delineated by type of therapy.

Background: Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic, recurrent gastrointestinal disorder characterized by a complex etiology. Among its perianal complications, anal fistulas represent a challenging comorbidity. With the increase of surgical options, a comprehensive bibliometric analysis was deemed necessary to consolidate the vast array of research in this field.

We find common inflammatory phenotypes driven by microbiomes from individuals with intestinal inflammation or inflammatory arthritis, as well as distinct functions specific to microbiomes from multiple sclerosis patients. Inflammatory disease in mice colonized with human microbiomes correlated with systemic inflammation, measured by C-reactive protein, in the human donors.

Department of Epidemiology and Preventive Medicine, School of Public Health, Faculty of Medicine, Tel Aviv University, Ramat Aviv, Tel Aviv, 6997801, Israel.
Background: The relationship between inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and the risk of ischemic heart diseases (IHD) remains a subject of debate. In this study, we sought to investigate the association between IBD and long-term risk of IHD in a substantial cohort of IBD patients.
Methods: In this retrospective cohort study we utilized data from a state-mandated provider in Israel (Maccabi Healthcare Services).
Dual Biologic Therapy Induces Remission in Refractory Crohn's Disease With Vedolizumab and Ustekinumab.
Crohns Colitis 360
January 2025
Division of Digestive Diseases and Nutrition, Department of Medicine, University of Kentucky College of Medicine, Lexington, KY, USA.
Background: Despite advancements in the therapeutic armamentarium for Crohn's disease (CD), biologic and small molecule monotherapies are associated with sub-optimal response and remission rates. Utilizing dual biologic therapy (DBT) holds the potential to increase efficacy in the treatment of refractory or partially responsive CD. Evidence pertaining to this strategy remains limited.
