The association of Crohn's disease (CD) and Sweet's syndrome is rare and the presence of Sjögren's syndrome in Crohn's disease is even rarer, with only three reports found in the literature. We describe two cases of Crohn's disease associated with Sweet's syndrome, one of which is the first case of CD and Sweet's concomitantly associated with Sjogren's syndrome. Both cases responded rapidly to Infliximab therapy with complete resolution of the skin lesions.

Diagnosis and management of inflammatory bowel disease after solid organ transplantation in the era of biologic therapy: a case series.
Front Transplant
January 2025
Division of Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN, United States.
Introduction: The clinical characteristics of inflammatory bowel disease (dnIBD) diagnosed after solid organ transplant (SOT) are not well-described, particularly since the advent of biologic therapy for treatment of IBD.
Methods: We conducted a single-center, retrospective review of SOT recipients between 2010 and 2022 at the University of Minnesota Medical Center who were diagnosed with IBD after transplant.
Results: Of 89 patients at our center with IBD and a history of SOT, five (5.

Multiple chronic ulcers of the small intestine are primarily attributed to Crohn's disease. Other differential diagnoses include rare monogenic disorders caused by mutations in and , the latter responsible for chronic enteropathy associated with (CEAS), a condition mainly reported in Asian patients. We present the case of a 10-year-old girl from India with a 5-year history of abdominal pain, altered bowel habits and failure to gain weight.

Background: This study aims to report the experience over 40 years and outcomes of 5070 patients who underwent a pelvic pouch procedure.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of a prospectively maintained IPAA database- (1983 - 2022) was performed. Patients were stratified based on the diagnosis: ulcerative colitis (UC), indeterminate colitis (IC), familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), inflammatory bowel disease-dysplasia, Crohn's colitis (CD), and others.
PSC and colitis: A complex relationship.
Hepatology

Primary sclerosing cholangitis is one of the most challenging conditions in hepatology, and due to our limited understanding of its pathogenesis, no causal therapies are currently available. While it was long assumed that a minority of people with IBD also develop PSC, which is sometimes labeled an extraintestinal manifestation of IBD, the clinical phenotype, genetic and intestinal microbiota associations strongly argue for PSC-IBD being a distinct form of IBD, existing alongside ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. In fact, the liver itself could contribute to intestinal pathology, clinically overt in 60 - 80 % of patients.

Department of Gastroenterology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University, Hefei 230022, Anhui Province, China.
Background: Mucosal healing (MH) is the major therapeutic target for Crohn's disease (CD). As the most commonly involved intestinal segment, small bowel (SB) assessment is crucial for CD patients. Yet, it poses a significant challenge due to its limited accessibility through conventional endoscopic methods.
