A 54-year-old male underwent a low anterior resection in 2015 for rectal adenocarcinoma. He presented to the emergency department with a two-week history of fever, perianal pain, an erythematous, warm, and actively draining mass. Physical examination revealed a perianal abscess in the left posterior gluteal region, with a palpable internal fistulous orifice 3 cm from the anal margin.

Background: The aim of this Delphi study was to reach consensus on a new clinical decision tool to help identify or exclude Crohn's disease (CD) in patients with perianal fistula(s) (PAF).

Methods: A panel of international experts in the field of proctology/Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) were invited to participate. In the first round (electronic survey), participants were asked to anonymously provide their opinion probing 1) the relevance and use of clinical characteristics suggestive of underlying CD, 2) the use of faecal calprotectin (FCP) for screening for CD and 3) on the diagnostic work-up for CD in PAF patients with raised clinical suspicion.

Background: Perianal fistulizing Crohn's disease (PFCD) is a challenging and debilitating phenotype of Crohn's disease that can negatively affect quality of life. Studies have begun to uncover the physiologic mechanisms involved in wound repair as it relates to PFCD and how aberrations in these mechanisms may contribute to fistula persistence.

Aims: To review the physiologic and pathophysiologic mechanisms of wound repair in PFCD and how specific therapeutic strategies may impact their outcomes.

This case is relevant for describing a rare presentation of intestinal tuberculosis with perianal manifestations, complicated by abscesses and recurrent fistulas. The clinical manifestations mimicked Crohn's disease and other inflammatory conditions, making the diagnosis challenging and requiring a differentiated and meticulous diagnostic process. A 45-year-old male patient presented with a chronic abscess in the left buttock lasting for two years, characterized by spontaneous purulent drainage and multiple recurrences despite surgical and clinical treatments.

Background: Nowadays, there is a clear need for new viable therapeutic options to face complex perianal Crohn's disease (PCD). Results of our previous pilot study demonstrated the efficacy and safety of local injection of autologous microfragmented adipose tissue (MFat) in this setting. This study aims to evaluate the long-term follow-up results in the same cohort of patients.
