[Simultaneous occurrence of Crohn's and Bechterew's disease].
The author describes a case-history of concomitant manifestation of classical Bekhterev's disease (HLA B 27 positive) which preceded by 10 years the detection of Crohn's disease of the stomach, terminal ileum and rectum. The author discusses the relationship of the two diseases in particular with regard to the probable defined extraintestinal manifestation of Crohn's disease. The concurrent presence of the two diseases causes difficulties when assessing the humoral activity. For ankylosing spondylarthritis with a manifest or silent intestinal inflammation 5-aminosalicylic acid is the drug of choice. Early detection of the two diseases is important for therapy and prognosis.
