CTE findings of mesenteric hypervascularity, mucosal hyperenhancement, and mesenteric fat stranding predict tissue inflammation. However, small bowel stricture without CTE findings of inflammation does not predict the presence of tissue fibrosis. Therefore, caution should be used when using CTE criteria to predict the presence of scar tissue.

Background and Aims-Clinical genetic testing can help direct cancer screening for members of Lynch Syndrome families; however there is limited information about family communication of genetic test results.

A male is described with familial duplication of the distal long arm of the X chromosome (Xq27.2-->qter) at the distal short arm (Xp22.3). The proband has features of the male Prada-Willi syndrome phenotype that have not previously been reported in other males with duplication of Xq27-->qter.

Information from radiologic studies, especially the presence of fixed strictures, can predict future CD complications. These findings, along with smoking and ongoing inflammation, should alert the clinician to the possibility of future complications.
