⚠️ #Pouch for CD in pts w rectal sparing, or in pts w SB or perianal disease
🔺CD of pouch common
🔺Pouch failure uncommon
💬 from #CRSurgery ?
Key features of #crohnsdisease of the pouch are proximal bowel involvement and features of Crohns outside of pouch itself including perianal disease (not pouch anastomotic leak) …biopsy of pouch not helpful to r/o…isolated pouch disease challenging to call true crohns
