Abstract
Intraabdominal abscesses and their sequalae have long been observed in patients with Crohn's disease. Patients with Crohn's disease account for little more than 0.5% of all patients coming to laparotomy for intraabdominal abscess. However, an intraabdceninal abscess will develop as a complication of Crohn's disease in 12 to 25% of patients. For enteroparietal abscess, incision and drainage with later definitive resection is the optimal therapy, However, primary en bloc resection is performed with excellent results recently. We experienced a case of Crohn's disease whose initial problem was intraabdorninal abscess. After surgery, we confirmed Crohn's disease. (Korean J Gastrointest Endosc 17: 430-434, 1997)
