ABSTRACT
Anti-tumor necrosis factor-α(anti-TNF-α)agents have been widely used in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease(IBD)in children.Anti-TNF-α therapy can effectively induce and maintain disease remission, promote intestinal mucosal healing, and prevent long-term end-stage organ damage and growth retardation in pediatric IBD patient.Anti-TNF-α agents can significantly impair the human immune function, which may increase the infection risk of IBD children, including the infection of bacteria, viruses, fungi and mycobacteria.This study summarizes the current published literature regarding infections in pediatric patients with IBD receiving anti-TNF-α therapies, which can help to improve the cognition of pediatric medical staff on opportunistic infection of pediatric IBD patients following anti-TNF-α treatment.
