Abstract |
We experienced a case with chief complaints of abdominal pain and diarrhea in a 12-year-old boy,
who was diagnosed as Crohn disease with a result of radiologic, endoscopic, pathologic findings, and
therapeutic diagnosis with antituberculous medications.
Crohn disease is quite rare in Korea to our knowledge along with collaborative survey in litera-
tures, and it is very important that therapeutic diagnosis with antituberculous medications should be
preceded to confirm Crohn disease, since tuberculous enteritis is one of the most prevalent disease
around ileocecal area. |
