  • Title: The management of fistulizing oral Crohn's disease with infliximab.
    Author: Staines KS, Green R, Felix DH.
    Journal: J Oral Pathol Med; 2007 Aug; 36(7):444-6. PubMed ID: 17617840.
    Abstract:
    A 20-year-old female patient with oral Crohn's disease developed a fistula in her neck from a focus of intra-oral infection. Despite repeated courses of antimicrobial therapy over a period of several months, the fistula failed to resolve. However, following administration of infliximab, a monoclonal antitumour necrosis factor-alpha antibody, the fistula resolved spontaneously without the need for any further treatment.
