Description
Yiyi Chen and co-authors present a case report from 2024 on a patient with Crohn's disease of the small bowel. For twenty months the patient had fevers and pain in the lower back, hip, and groin. There were no gut symptoms, and a scope test of the colon looked normal at first.
Scans found a liver abscess and sore spots deep in the back muscles. Drugs for infection did not help, so doctors looked more closely. A scan and then surgery pointed to a fistula in the small bowel. Surgeons removed a sick segment, and tests confirmed Crohn's disease. New drug treatment then left the patient free of symptoms.
