Abstract
|
|
|
Crohn¡¯s disease is a chronic intestinal inflammation and its etiology and pathogenesis have not been defined. Clinical manifestations of Crohn¡¯s disease involve abdominal pain, diarrhea, weight loss, intestinal stenosis, presence of fistulas and gastrointestinal hemorrhage. Crohn¡¯s disease is also associated with a variety of extraintestinal manifestations such as ankylosing spondylitis, uveitis and primary sclerosing cholangitis. We report a case of Crohn¡¯s disease associated with noncaseating granulomatous liver disease that is rare in Korea. (Korean J Gastrointest Endosc 2008;36:298-301)
