Coming soonInflammatory bowel disease is an umbrella term for chronic, immune-mediated inflammatory disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, primarily encompassing Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.
The condition arises from an inappropriate, dysregulated immune response to intestinal microbiota in genetically susceptible individuals, leading to epithelial barrier breakdown and persistent mucosal damage.
It can affect pediatric and adult populations, running a relapsing and remitting course clinically characterized by abdominal pain, persistent diarrhea, rectal bleeding, weight loss, and fatigue.
Pathophysiologically, ulcerative colitis produces continuous mucosal inflammation confined to the colon and rectum, whereas Crohn's disease causes transmural, discontinuous inflammation that can manifest anywhere along the digestive tract.
