| Abstrakt: | Surgical management of Crohn's disease is reserved for patients refractory to medical therapy and those who develop complications alleviated by surgery. Surgical resection may be the most efficient way to restore health in patients with stricturing and or fistulizing disease of the terminal ileum / small bowel. However, decision-making in patients with Crohn's colitis is more difficult. The merits of segmental resection versus subtotal/total colectomy versus total proctocolectomy with end ileostomy are affected by a myriad of factors, including extent of colon involvement, the patient's age, and the patient's degree of desire to avoid an ileostomy. In patients undergoing a total proctocolectomy for Crohn's colitis, the anal canal should be removed. The following case highlights the potential difficulty that may arise when the anal canal is left in situ. (Copyright © 2017 European Crohn’s and Colitis Organisation (ECCO).
