[Crohn disease in 3 siblings].
Three siblings without a known familiar history of chronic inflammatory disease of the intestine suffered Crohn's disease. They were the 3rd, 4th and 8th siblings of a family of 8 siblings. The onset of the disease and its course were similar in all three patients. Considering the form of familial presentation and the possible influence of environmental factors in this type of patients, a review is made of the influence of these factors in accordance with the clinical patients' evolution.
