“…A recent study investigated the indications for opting for an upfront open approach in ileocolic resection for CD. The researchers identified that the involvement of the abdominal wall or the presence of concomitant open procedure, or anesthesiologic contraindication to MIS serves as a no-go for the MIS approach ( 12 ).…”

Surgery for Crohn’s disease (CD) has undergone significant advancements over the last two decades, especially minimally invasive surgery. In addition to its feasibility and safety, minimally invasive surgery provides manifold advantages, including a decreased hospitalization duration, improved aesthetic results, and fewer occurrences of intra-abdominal adhesions. Due to the special intraoperative characteristics of CD, such as chronic inflammation, a thickened mesentery, ﬁstulas, abscesses and large masses, a minimally invasive approach seems to be challenging. Complete implementation of this technique for complex disease has yet to be studied. In this review, we provide a review on the applicability of minimally invasive surgery in CD and future perspectives for the technical advances in the field.
