Article Abstract
Objective: To analyze archival data on emergency hospitalization of patients with Crohn's disease, indications for surgical treatment, structure of surgeries, localization of gastrointestinal lesions and relationship between diagnostic period and surgical treatment.
Material And Methods: A retrospective analysis of medical records of patients with Crohn's disease in 3 large hospitals was performed over the past 6 years. We estimated cases of surgical treatment, localization of gastrointestinal lesions, clinical and laboratory parameters of patients, period between clinical manifestation and diagnosis, as well as outcomes of disease depending on duration of diagnostic searching.
Conclusion: Duration of diagnostic searching in patients with Crohn's disease is a significant predictor of complications and surgical treatment.
