Capsule endoscopy was used to detect intestinal infection in a 19-year-old man. The patient was initially believed to have Crohn's disease due to a notable family history of the disease. Capsule endoscopy is a valuable tool for diagnosing tapeworm infection even when Crohn's disease is suspected.

Background: Previous studies have suggested an association between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and pancreatitis, including acute pancreatitis (AP) and chronic pancreatitis (CP). We aimed to examine the potential causal relationship between IBD and pancreatitis using the Mendelian randomization (MR) method.
Methods: We obtained data from genome-wide association studies (GWASs) in European individuals for IBD and its main subtypes, Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) (31,665 IBD cases, 13,768 UC cases, 17,897 CD cases and 33,977 controls).

Crohn's Colitis Cure, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.
Background: The burden of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is often reported on from a system or cost viewpoint. We created and explored a novel patient-perceived burden of disease (PPBoD) score in a large Australasian cohort.
Aim: To create and explore a novel patient-perceived burden of disease (PPBoD) score in a large Australasian cohort, and correlate PPBoD scores with demographics, disease and treatment factors.

Department of Surgery, Cantonal Hospital of Fribourg (HFR), Villars-sur-Glâne, Switzerland.
BACKGROUND Crohn disease is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease known for causing fistulous tracts, abscesses, and bowel perforation. Enterohepatic fistulas, a rare but significant complication, are scarcely reported. This article presents the case of a hepatic abscess due to an enterohepatic fistula in a patient with long-term Crohn disease and reviews the existing literature on this phenomenon.
