IntroductionInflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) (Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC)) are considered among the commonest gastrointestinal (GI) tract diseases manifesting with chronic, recurring episodes of gut inflammation, especially in the colon. Each disease has its pattern, symptoms, severity of pain, extension, management, and prognosis. However, these diseases share most of the various complications, including the GI tract and extending it to other systems such as musculoskeletal, skin, liver, and pulmonary systems. ObjectivesWe aim to identify the demographic data, prevalence, risk factors, clinical presentation, and management (medications given and investigations ordered) of thromboembolic events (TEE) among inflammatory bowel disease patients at King Fahad Specialist Hospital (KFSH) in Buraydah, Al-Qassim, Saudi Arabia. Materials and methodsThis is a retrospective, cross-sectional study. All included patients with IBD who meet the inclusion criteria between January 2020 and January 2022 in KFSH were reviewed, and data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) Statistics version 23.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA).
