[Ileitis caused by Yersinia enterocolitica--X-ray differential diagnosis of Crohn's disease (author's transl)].
The article gives a brief description of the characteristic features of the clinical and roentgenological course and the various stages of enteritis caused by Yersinia. Basing on three cases of ileitis caused by Yersinia, the far-reaching similarity with the early changes and even the advanced stages of Crohn's disease are demonstrated. Attention is drawn to the possibilities of differentiating between the two disease patterns.
