Title: Cutaneous Manifestations of Crohn Disease. Author: Hagen JW, Swoger JM, Grandinetti LM. Journal: Dermatol Clin; 2015 Jul; 33(3):417-31. PubMed ID: 26143422. Abstract: Awareness of the extraintestinal manifestations of Crohn disease is increasing in dermatology and gastroenterology, with enhanced identification of entities that range from granulomatous diseases recapitulating the underlying inflammatory bowel disease to reactive conditions and associated dermatoses. In this review, the underlying etiopathology of Crohn disease is discussed, and how this mirrors certain skin manifestations that present in a subset of patients is explored. The array of extraintestinal manifestations that do not share a similar pathology, but which are often seen in association with inflammatory bowel disease, is also discussed. Treatment and pathogenetic mechanisms, where available, are discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
