Metastatic Crohn's disease in a child.
Metastatic Crohn's disease is a rare complication of Crohn's disease that has not been frequently reported in the literature. Although Crohn's disease is common in children, cutaneous manifestations are rarely a presenting sign. We report the case of a young boy who initially presented with unusual skin lesions and whose condition was diagnosed later as Crohn's disease.
