Patients with Crohn's disease are prone to the development of pyogenic complications. These complications are most commonly in the form of perianal or intraabdominal abscesses and/or fistulas. Complications in these 2 distinct areas are managed differently; however, they are similar in the fact that initial treatment relies on medical or minimally invasive management to achieve a nonacute condition prior to definitive surgical procedure. This article reviews the current surgical management of obtaining pyogenic control in both anorectal and intraabdominal Crohn's disease.

Freedom of information requests were sent to three trusts which had provided evidence of disparate provision of biologic therapy to patients with Crohn's disease, their associated Clinical Commissioning Groups and Healthwatch organisations to seek evidence whether they had remedied the situation. Requests were also sent to the Care Quality Commission, NHS Improvement and the Equality and Human Rights Commission seeking examples where they had responded to inequitable delivery of care related to ethnicity.
