What is Crohn's disease?

What-is-Crohn's-disease?_0_0

What-is-Crohn's-disease?_0_1

Crohn's disease, also called regional enteritis or ileitis, is a lifelong form of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The condition inflames and irritates the digestive tract - in particular, the small and large intestines. Crohn's disease can cause diarrhea and stomach cramps as the most common manifestations. It is customary to have periodic exacerbations of the disease with periods of lull in which there are no symptoms. &nbsp;<a href="https://medipro.bg/crohn-bolest/" target="_blank" data-ref="Болест на Crohn | Най-добрите лекари в България MediPro.bg" rel="noopener">[ref. 1]</a>&nbsp;

What-is-Crohn's-disease?_0_2

Crohn's disease gets its name from the American gastroenterologist Dr. Burrill Crohn (1884-1983). He was one of the first doctors to describe the disease in 1932. Ulcerative colitis is another commonly diagnosed inflammatory bowel disease.

Crohn's disease usually occurs in younger people often in their late teens, 20s or early 30s. However, this condition can develop at any age. According to knowledge, it is equally common in men and women.&nbsp;

What-are-the-variations-of-Crohn's-disease?

What are the variations of Crohn's disease? 

What-are-the-variations-of-Crohn's-disease?_2_0

There are six varieties of Crohn's disease, all based on which part of the digestive system they affect. Here is the&nbsp; classification:

What-are-the-variations-of-Crohn's-disease?_2_1

<ul><li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Gastroduodenal Crohn's disease. This unusual condition mainly affects the stomach and duodenum, which is the first part of the small intestine.</li><li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Yeiunoileit. This type is found in the second part of the intestine, called the jejunum (empty intestine). Like gastroduodenal Crohn's disease, this variation is less frequent.</li><li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Ileith. Ileitis involves inflammation in the latter part of the small intestine or ileum.</li><li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Ileocolitis. This affects the ileum and colon and is the most common variation of Crohn's disease.</li><li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Crohn's Colit. This species affects only the large intestine. Both ulcerative colitis and Crohn's colitis affect only the colon, but Crohn's colitis can affect the deeper layers of the intestinal mucosa.</li><li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Perianal disease. This often includes the appearance of fistulas or abnormal connections between tissues, deep tissue infections, as well as wounds and ulcers on the outer skin around the anus.</li></ul>

What-causes-Crohn's-disease?

What causes Crohn's disease? 

What-causes-Crohn's-disease?_3_0

There is no specific known cause of Crohn's disease. However, some factors may increase the risk of developing the disease, including&nbsp;<a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28601423/" target="_blank" data-ref="Crohn Disease: Epidemiology, Diagnosis, and Management - PubMed" rel="noopener">[ref. 2]</a>&nbsp;

What-causes-Crohn's-disease?_3_1

<ul><li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Autoimmune disease: Bacteria in the digestive tract can cause your body's immune system to attack your healthy cells. This means triggering an autoimmune process and developing an autoimmune disease that gives rise to systemic inflammation in the body;</li><li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Genes: Inflammatory bowel disease often occurs in families. If you have a parent, sibling, or other family member with Crohn's disease, you may be at increased risk of developing the disease. There are several specific mutations (changes) in genes that may predispose people to developing Crohn's disease.</li><li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Smoking - Smokers may have a higher risk of Crohn's disease than non-smokers.&nbsp;</li></ul>

What are the symptoms of Crohn's disease? 

What-are-the-symptoms-of-Crohn's-disease?_4_0

People with Crohn's disease may experience periods of severe exacerbations followed by periods of absence or very mild symptoms (remission). Remission can last for weeks or even years. There is no way to predict when exacerbations will occur, except by controlling the intake of certain foods and medications. Of course, stress reduction and smoking are two more methods to avoid potential illnesses and protect against compromise of the immune system, in which Crohn's disease can develop.&nbsp;

Symptoms of this health problem may include:

How is Crohn's disease managed or treated? 

How-is-Crohn's-disease-managed-or-treated?_5_0

Treatment for Crohn's disease varies depending on what causes the symptoms and how severe they are. In any case, the goal of treatment is to induce remission (the time between symptom exacerbations), maintain remission, and manage any complications of Crohn's disease over time. &nbsp;<a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7648997/" target="_blank" data-ref="Page not available - PMCTwitterFacebookLinkedInGitHubSM-TwitterSM-FacebookSM-Youtube" rel="noopener">[ref. 3]</a>&nbsp;
