Crohn's disease is a perplexing panintestinal disease whose etiology is unknown. Symptoms and complications vary greatly from patient to patient. Despite the fact that no cure exists, thoughtful, well-planned therapy and appropriate timely intervention, where needed, can result in maintenance of a high quality of life for affected patients.
