"Congratulations to Drs. Korelitz and Pranteraa state-of-the-art publication devoted to Crohn''s disease with special focus on etiopathogenesis, diagnostic evaluation, and therapeutic management provides an up-to-date all-inclusive resourcehighly recommend[ed] a worthwhile purchase and deserves a place in your library."--Gastroenterology. "The book

Crohn's disease is an inflammatory bowel disease, whose symptoms are similar to other intestinal disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome and ulcerative colitis; it can therefore be difficult to diagnose. Its knowledge and understanding have increased considerably in the last years; new advances in genetics, medical and surgical management offer today new possibilities for patients suffering from an inflammatory bowel disease. However, Crohn's disease remains a difficult disease to deal with, both from a research and clinical point of view.This book provides general practitioners with a basic knowledge of the disease, offering in the same time an update on new facts about Crohn's disease to specialists. It can also be useful for residents willing to develop a deeper knowledge of inflammatory bowel diseases.
