Significance of Perianal Lesion in Pediatric Crohn Disease

Abstract: PurposeDespite the increasing incidence of pediatric Crohn disease (CD) in Korea, data on the characteristics of perianal lesions are scarce. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the characteristics of pediatric CD with accompanying perianal lesions in Korea.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed the medical records of children (age ≤18 years) with confirmed CD at Gachon University Gil Medical Center between 2000 and 2014. Patients were classified into two groups based on the presence or absence of any perianal lesi… Show more

“…A recent systematic review and meta-analysis of population-based cohort studies examining the phenotype and outcome of IBD across ethnic groups have reported that perianal disease is more frequently observed in CD patients of African and/or Asian descent than CD patients of Caucasian and/or Hispanic descent [32]. Perianal fistula and/ or abscess have been reported in 42-50% of Korean pediatric CD patients at diagnosis [23, 33,34], and even higher in those with moderate-to-severe disease activity requiring treatment with biologics [27, [35][36][37]. Meanwhile, reports from Western countries vary from 4-45% at diagnosis [21].…”
