In countries such as India where tuberculosis continues to be highly prevalent, differentiating Crohn's disease from tuberculosis is a challenging task.…”

“…Podstawowym badaniem endoskopowym jest kolonoskopia z oceną końcowego odcinka jelita krętego i pobraniem wycinków (zmiany w ileum terminale wystę-pują u około 40% chorych, a w jelicie grubym u około 40-50%) [5][6][7][8]. Wartość diagnostyczną ma zwłaszcza stwierdzenie zmian o charakterze brukowania błony śluzowej, zmian odcinkowych, zlokalizowanych w ileum terminale oraz okołoodbytowych.…”
