Abstract:Crohn's disease presents a public health problem. The clinical presentation is variable with gastrointestinal and extra gastrointestinal manifestations. The management is multidisciplinary while patients with Crohn's disease rarely require surgery. We present a rare case of a 57-year-old patient followed for 10 years for ankylosing spondylitis and admitted for abdominal pain on intussusception caused due to Crohn's disease which was probably symptomatic but not understood by your patient.
