Extraintestinal manifestations in inflammatory bowel disease

Abstract: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) can be really considered to be systemic diseases since they are often associated with extraintestinal manifestations, complications, and other autoimmune disorders. Indeed, physicians who care for patients with ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, the two major forms of IBD, face a new clinical challenge every day, worsened by the very frequent rate of extraintestinal complications. The goal of this review is to provide an overview and an update on the extraintestinal compl… Show more

“…Only rarely is surgery necessary to control the EIMs of UC ( 308,309 ). Previously, patients with severe progressive pyoderma gangrenosum, in whom the pyoderma activity paralleled the activity of the colitis, required surgery ( 310 ); however, infl iximab ( 311 -313 ) has been found eff ective in healing pyoderma gangrenosum, and should therefore be tried before resorting to surgery for this indication.…”

“…Our study shows that an underlying product of the inflammatory process, nitrite, also undergoes considerable cycling throughout the disease, dipping to vanishingly low levels and suddenly rising to values many-fold above basal ones. Secondly, IBD is often accompanied by complications in distal organs, including the liver and the kidney, for reasons that are yet unclear 67 . Our findings show that those two organs are the main targets of nitrite overload and significant oxidative stress.…”
