Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 11
Abstract
Perforation and panparitonitis is a rare presentation of crohn’s disease. We are reporting a case of extensive crohn’s disease involving rectum to jejunum and presented with skip lesion, multiple perforation and peritonitis. In this case, crohn’s disease was diagnosed first time, on the basis of operative findings and confirmed histopathologically. We managed the case by doing exploratory laparotomy, segmental resection of small bowel, double barrel jejunostomy and ileostomy.
