Current status of research on inflammatory bowel disease with special comorbidities / 临床肝胆病杂志

ABSTRACT

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) not only involves the intestinal tract, but also has several comorbidities outside the intestinal tract, among which there are various types of special comorbidities, including hematological system diseases, immune system diseases, and nervous system diseases. IBD with special comorbidities brings difficulties to the diagnosis and treatment of IBD, increases the disability rate and mortality rate of IBD patients, and greatly affects patients’ quality of life. This article elaborates on the definition, prevalence trend, pathogenesis, and diagnosis and treatment strategies for IBD with special comorbidities, in order to improve the understanding of the importance of multidisciplinary cooperation in the diagnosis and treatment of IBD among clinicians.
