Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at increased risk of thromboembolic complications (TEC), which represent an important cause of morbidity and mortality.To assess the prevalence and risk factors of TEC in patients with IBD.We conducted a retrospective study including all the IBD patients in the gastroenterological department of Charles Nicolle hospital between 2000 and 2010. Only thromboembolic events that had been diagnosed by an imaging procedure were counted.A total of 266 patients with IBD were consecutively included. TE events occurred in nine patients (3.4%); six men and three women. Their mean age was 31 years [15-64 years]. Five patients had Crohn's disease and four had ulcerative colitis. The types of TEC were deep venous thrombosis of the leg in five cases with pulmonary embolism in one of them, cerebral venous thrombosis in two cases, portal thrombosis in one case and jugular vein thrombosis in one case. Active disease was present in all cases at the time TEC occurred.In our study, the prevalence of TEC is 3.4% in patients with IBD. Deep venous thromboses of the leg are the most common TEC and all our cases occurs during the active phase of IBD. |
