[Role and results of surgery in Crohn disease in adults].
Because of new medical treatments, the authors propose a review of the principal surgical indications in Crohn's disease in adults and the current prognosis based on the literature. Schematically, these indications correspond to failures of drug treatment, apart from emergency situations. Relapses are still very frequent, but may remain responsive to medical treatment. However, coloproctectomy, a fairly invasive operation, provides the best results in the colonic forms.
