A case of idiopathic central serous chorioretinopathy with bullous retinal detachment occurring in a patient with Crohn's disease is described. This rare eye condition (36 reported cases in the world's literature) has previously been seen in association with ulcerative colitis, and its occurrence in a patient with Crohn's disease suggests that it may represent another ophthalmologic complication of inflammatory bowel disease.

Herpes zoster (HZ) is caused by the reactivation of the varicella zoster virus and presents with painful vesicular lesions in a dermatomal distribution. Disseminated HZ occurs when skin lesions erupt in numerous dermatomes. Upadacitinib is the first oral medication approved to treat moderate-severe Crohn's disease and has been associated with nonsevere cases of HZ.

Increasing evidence has linked obesity to complications of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD); however, data are limited on the efficacy and impact of weight management strategies on the disease course. There are a strikingly limited number of interventional studies on weight management in patients with IBD, and the recent nutrition and IBD guidelines published in the United States do not mention weight management strategies. Overweight and obesity management in patients with IBD should follow a stepwise approach to assessment and treatment, including lifestyle modification, anti-obesity medications such as glucagon-like peptide-1 agonists, endobariatric procedures, and bariatric surgery (if deemed appropriate).

Crohn's disease is a form of inflammation that affects the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. It is characterized by persistent inflammation in the gut, which can lead to the formation of abnormal connections called fistulas. These fistulas can occur between the GI tract and the abdominal cavity, adjacent organs, or the skin.

Introduction: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), comprised of ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), are chronic inflammatory diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. Clinicians and patients must vigilantly manage these complex diseases over the course of the patient's lifetime to mitigate risks of the disease, surgical complications, progression to neoplasia, and complications from medical or surgical therapies. Over the past several decades, the armamentarium of IBD therapeutics has expanded; now with biologics and advanced small molecules complementing conventional drugs such as aminosalicylates, corticosteroids and thiopurines.
