  • Title: A free terminal ileal perforation from active crohn disease in pregnancy: a diagnostic challenge.
    Author: Philip S, Kamyab A, Orfanou P.
    Journal: Int Surg; 2015 Mar; 100(3):450-4. PubMed ID: 25785326.
    Abstract:
    The surgical management of the complications of Crohn disease is often challenging. These difficulties are compounded in pregnancy by competing interests of the mother and the baby. In this report, we describe the presentation and surgical management of a patient in her second trimester with active Crohn disease who required emergent surgical intervention. She had presented with the uncommon complication of a free perforation in the presence of active untreated disease.
