Abstract
Introduction Duodenojejunal stricture is a rare entity that has been attributed to peptic stricture, malignancy, chronic pancreatitis, Crohn's disease and other benign causes. Case presentation The authors present a case of a 67-year-old male who presented with upper abdominal pain for 2 weeks, 2 episodes of bilious vomiting, and inability to pass stool and flatus for 1 day. He had a history of chronic upper abdominal pain over the last 40 years and pulmonary tuberculosis 50 years back.Computed tomography (CT) scan of the abdomen and pelvis showed short segment narrowing in the fourth segment of the duodenum with dilated first, second and third segment duodenal loops. Resection and end-to-end duodenojejunal anastomosis was performed and the outcome was normal. Discussion Benign duodenojejunal can be treated with balloon dilatation, stenting, strictureplasty and resection anastomosis. Treatment should be offered considering efficacy, availability, complications of these modalities and aetiology. Conclusion Anterograde push enteroscopy and CT scan can aid in preoperative diagnosis of duodenojejunal stricture. Even in older age groups without prior surgical history, benign duodenojejunal stricture can be the cause of intestinal obstruction. Resection and end-to-end duodenojejunal anastomosis can be safe and effective treatment modalities for duodenojejunal junction stricture.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Operative options for duodenal Crohn's disease include bypass, stricturoplasty, or resection. What factors are associated with operation selection and whether differences exist in outcomes is unknown. METHODS Patients with duodenal Crohn's disease requiring operative intervention across a multi-state health system were identified. Patient and operative characteristics, short-term surgical outcomes, and the need for future endoscopic or surgical management of duodenal Crohn's disease were analyzed. RESULTS 40 patients underwent bypass (n = 26), stricturoplasty (n = 8), or resection (n = 6). Median age of diagnosis of Crohn's disease was 23.5 years, and over half of the patients had undergone prior surgery for CD. Operation type varied by the most proximal extent of duodenal involvement. Patients with proximal duodenal CD underwent bypass operations more commonly than those with mid- or distal duodenal disease (p = 0.03). Patients who underwent duodenal stricturoplasty more often required concomitant operations for other sites of small bowel or colonic CD (63%) compared to those who underwent bypass (39%) or resection (33%). No patients required subsequent surgery for duodenal CD at a median follow-up of 2.8 years, but two patients required endoscopic dilation (n = 1 after stricturoplasty, n = 1 after resection). CONCLUSION Patients who require surgery for duodenal Crohn's disease appear to have an aggressive Crohn's disease phenotype, represented by a younger age of diagnosis and a high rate of prior resection for Crohn's disease. Choice of operation varied by proximal extent of duodenal Crohn's disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few studies have compared endoscopic balloon dilation (EBD) and surgery in the treatment of duodenal stricture in patients with Crohn's disease (CD). METHODS We performed a retrospective study to compare the efficacy and safety among patients with CD-associated duodenal stricture treated with EBD or surgery from October 2013 to December 2021. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to evaluate factors associated with recurrence-free or surgery-free survival. RESULTS A total of 48 eligible patients were included, including 30 patients treated with EBD only and 18 patients treated with surgery. Patients treated with surgery experienced more symptomatic improvement (100% vs. 63.33%, p = 0.003) and significantly longer recurrence-free survival (6.31 [IQR: 3.00-8.39] years vs. 2.96 [IQR: 1.06-5.42] years, p = 0.01) but suffered more postprocedural adverse events (16.67% vs. 0.74% per procedure, p = 0.001). In patients initially treated with EBD (n = 41), a total of 11 (26.83%) required subsequent surgical intervention. Younger age at CD diagnosis (HR = 0.90, 95% CI: 0.81-1.00, p = 0.04) was associated with a higher risk for subsequent surgery. CONCLUSIONS Surgery for CD-associated duodenal strictures was associated with a longer recurrence-free survival. EBD was safe and effective with minimal postprocedural adverse events but led to a high frequency of recurrence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The case of Crohn's disease involving the duodenum is rare, and its surgical management requires a thorough understanding.
AIM To investigate the surgical management of duodenal Crohn’s disease.
METHODS We systematically reviewed patients diagnosed with duodenal Crohn's disease who underwent surgery in the Department of Geriatrics Surgery of the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from January 1, 2004, to August 31, 2022. The general information, surgical procedures, prognosis, and other information of these patients were collected and summarized.
RESULTS A total of 16 patients were diagnosed with duodenal Crohn’s disease, where 6 cases had primary duodenal Crohn’s disease, and 10 had secondary duodenal Crohn’s disease. Among patients with primary disease, 5 underwent duodenal bypass and gastrojejunostomy, and 1 received pancreaticoduodenectomy. Among those with a secondary disease, 6 underwent closure of duodenal defect and colectomy, 3 received duodenal lesion exclusion and right hemicolectomy, and 1 underwent duodenal lesion exclusion and double-lumen ileostomy.
CONCLUSION Crohn's disease involving the duodenum is a rare condition. Different surgical management should be applied for patients with Crohn's disease presenting with different clinical manifestations.

Abstract
Intestinal strictures are a common complication in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Symptoms due to intestinal strictures range from mild bloating and/or abdominal discomfort to complete bowel obstruction. Careful selection of available medical, endoscopic, or surgical therapies is critical for optimizing patient outcomes and is dependent on the effective characterization of the stricture. This article will focus on the diagnosis and classification of IBD strictures.

Abstract
The development of fibrostenotic intestinal disease occurs in approximately one-third of patients with Crohn's disease and is associated with increased morbidity. Despite introducing new biologic agents, stricturing Crohn's disease remains a significant clinical challenge. Medical treatment is considered the first-line treatment for inflammatory strictures, and anti-TNF agents appear to provide the most considerable benefit among the available medical treatments. However, medical therapy is ineffective on strictures with a mainly fibrotic component, and a high proportion of patients under anti-TNF will require surgery. In fibrotic strictures or cases refractory to medical treatment, an endoscopic or surgical approach should be considered depending on the location, length, and severity of the stricture. Both endoscopic balloon dilatation and endoscopic stricturoplasty are minimally invasive and safe, associated with a small risk of complications. On the other hand, the surgical approach is indicated in patients not suitable for endoscopic therapy. This review aimed to present and analyze the currently available medical, endoscopic, and surgical management of stricturing Crohn's disease.

Abstract
The majority of patients with Crohn's disease and a proportion of patients with ulcerative colitis will ultimately require surgical treatment despite advances in diagnosis, therapy, and endoscopic interventions. The surgical procedures that are most commonly done include bowel resection with anastomosis, strictureplasty, faecal diversion, and ileal pouch. These surgical treatment modalities result in substantial alterations in bowel anatomy. In patients with inflammatory bowel disease, endoscopy plays a key role in the assessment of disease activity, disease recurrence, treatment response, dysplasia surveillance, and delivery of endoscopic therapy. Endoscopic evaluation and management of surgically altered bowel can be challenging. This consensus guideline delineates anatomical landmarks and endoscopic assessment of these landmarks in diseased and surgically altered bowel.

Abstract
The Italian Society of Colorectal Surgery (SICCR) promoted the project reported here, which consists of a position statement of Italian colorectal surgeons to address the surgical aspects of Crohn's disease management. Members of the society were invited to express their opinions on several items proposed by the writing committee, based on evidence available in the literature. The results are presented, focusing on relevant points. The present paper is not an alternative to available guidelines; rather, it offers a snapshot of the attitudes of SICCR surgeons about the surgical treatment of Crohn's disease. The committee was able to identify some points of major disagreement and suggested strategies to improve quality of available data and acceptance of guidelines.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Stricturing duodenal Crohn disease (CD) is a rare but serious presentation of CD causing significant morbidity. We aim to provide the first robust incidence data and case studies on this severe presentation in children. METHODS A regional cohort of prospectively acquired incident cases of paediatric CD diagnosed <16 years of age in South-East Scotland was captured over a 19-year period (1999-2018). A retrospective review was conducted on the medical records of all patients together with a review of the available literature and consensus guidelines. Incidence rates for all CD and for duodenal stricturing CD were calculated. RESULTS A total of 247 new cases of paediatric CD were diagnosed within the study period. Median age at diagnosis was 12.5 years with 62% male predominance. Overall paediatric CD incidence rate was 5.70/100,000/year with a specific duodenal B2 phenotype disease incidence rate of 0.05/100,000/year; representing 0.8% of incident cases at diagnosis. Two incident cases of stricturing duodenal CD presented with systemic symptoms of weight loss, abdominal pain, anorexia, and lethargy, together with persistent vomiting suggestive of obstruction. Both cases partially responded to intensive medical therapy but eventually required laparoscopic gastroduodenostomy. A detailed literature search confirmed there are no paediatric incidence data, guidelines, or case reports relating to duodenal stricture as either a presentation or complication of CD. CONCLUSIONS Duodenal structuring disease is a rare but serious presentation of CD causing significant morbidity and not currently covered in the paediatric literature or consensus guidelines. Best practice medical and surgical management remain uncertain and require further research.

Abstract
The strictureplasty operation was originally adopted for use in selected patients with Crohn's disease to allow for bowel conservation. The procedure and its usage have evolved over time as experience and confidence with the technique has grown. The short- and long-term outcomes of strictureplasty compared with resection attest to its safety and durable efficacy.

Abstract
Upper gastrointestinal Crohn's is an under-reported, under-recognized phenotype of Crohn's disease. Routine screening in the pediatric population has shown a higher prevalence compared with adults; however, most adult patients remain asymptomatic with respect to upper gastrointestinal Crohn's disease. For the patients who are symptomatic, medical treatment is the first line of management, except for cases of obstruction, perforation, or bleeding. Though most patients respond to medical therapy, mainly steroids, with the addition of immunomodulators and more recently biologics agents, surgical intervention is usually required only for obstructing gastroduodenal disease secondary to strictures. Strictureplasty and bypass are safe operations with comparable morbidity, although bypass has higher rates of dumping syndrome and marginal ulceration in the long term. Rare cases of gastroduodenal fistulous disease from active distal disease may involve the stomach or duodenum, and esophageal Crohn's disease can fistulize to surrounding structures in the mediastinum which may require the highly morbid esophagectomy.

Abstract
Lay Summary
Crohn’s disease is an inflammatory condition of the intestine with an unknown cause and can result in inflammation, narrowing (stricuture) or penetrating disease (fistula that inflammation goes through the wall of the bowel and into another structure). Unfortunately Crohn’s disease can affect anywhere in the gastrointestinal tract, all the way from the mouth to the anus. Sometimes Crohn’s disease can affect the duodenum, the portion of the small intestine just after the stomach. When Crohn’s disease is in the duodenum and causes narrowing, it is difficult to treat medically, and often needs a surgical intervention. When the narrowing is short, less than a few centimeters, the surgeon can do a strictureplasty which means opening the intestine across the stricture and sewing it back shut in the horitzontal direction to make the opening larger. When the narrowing, or stricture, is longer, then the surgeon may have to connect the stomach to another part of the small intestine (gastrojejunostomy) to avoid or bypass the duodenum, or may have to perform a large reconstructive operation to remove that portion of the small intestine. the challenge is that those operations have significant potential complications associated with them. Therefore, sometimes a bypass operation can be done instead to connect the duodenum to the next part of the small intestine, the jejunum. In this manuscript the authors describe this surgical technique is a 38 year old male with Crohn’s disease who was referred with multiple areas of narrowing in his intestine.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic disorder involving mainly the intestinal tract, but possibly other gastrointestinal and extraintestinal organs. Although etiology is still uncertain, recent knowledge in pathogenesis has accumulated, and novel diagnostic and therapeutic modalities have become available for clinical use. Therefore, the previous guidelines were urged to be updated. In 2016, the Japanese Society of Gastroenterology revised the previous versions of evidence-based clinical practice guidelines for ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) in Japanese. A total of 59 clinical questions for 9 categories (1. clinical features of IBD; 2. diagnosis; 3. general consideration in treatment; 4. therapeutic interventions for IBD; 5. treatment of UC; 6. treatment of CD; 7. extraintestinal complications; 8. cancer surveillance; 9. IBD in special situation) were selected, and a literature search was performed for the clinical questions with use of the MEDLINE, Cochrane, and Igaku Chuo Zasshi databases. The guidelines were developed with the basic concept of the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) system. Recommendations were made using Delphi rounds. This English version was produced and edited based on the existing updated guidelines in Japanese.

Abstract
Symptomatic duodenal Crohn's disease (CD) is an uncommon disease presentation, especially in isolation. The most common duodenal disease phenotype is stricturing disease rather than inflammatory or perforating. Most patients are asymptomatic and are therefore diagnosed incidentally by cross-sectional imaging or endoscopy. Medical management includes proton pump inhibitor therapy and immunosuppressive therapy including corticosteroids, immunomodulatory therapy, and biologic therapy. Symptomatic strictures can often be treated medically or endoscopically, and do not always require surgery. Surgical options include resection with primary anastomosis, bypass with a gastrojejunostomy, and strictureplasty. Treatment recommendations are largely based on limited evidence from small series and expert opinion. Therefore, the optimal treatment algorithm remains largely subjective and undefined.

Abstract
Crohn's disease is a heterogeneous, inflammatory condition that can affect any location of the gastrointestinal tract. Proximal gastrointestinal involvement occurs in 0.5-16% of patients, and it is usually diagnosed after recognition of intestinal disease. Symptoms are often mild and nonspecific; however, upper gastrointestinal disease predicts a more severe Crohn's phenotype with a greater frequency of complications such as obstruction and perforation. Gastroscopy and biopsy is the most sensitive diagnostic investigation. There is a paucity of data examining the treatment of this condition. Management principles are similar to those for intestinal disease, commencing with topical therapy where appropriate, progressing to systemic therapy such as glucocorticoids, 5-aminosalicylic acid, immunomodulators, and biologics. Acid suppression therapy has symptomatic but no anti-inflammatory benefit for gastroduodenal and esophageal involvement. Surgical intervention with bypass, strictureplasty, or less frequently, endoscopic balloon dilation may be required for complications or failed medical therapy.

Abstract
Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic, progressive, and disabling inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) with an uncertain etiopathogenesis. CD can involve any site of the gastrointestinal tract from the mouth to the anus, and is associated with serious complications, such as bowel strictures, perforations, and fistula formation. The incidence and prevalence rates of CD in Korea are still lower compared with those in Western countries, but they have been rapidly increasing during the recent decades. Although there are no definitive curative modalities for CD, various medical and surgical therapies have been applied for the treatment of this disease. Concerning CD management, there have been substantial discrepancies among clinicians according to their personal experience and preference. To suggest recommendable approaches to the diverse problems of CD and to minimize the variations in treatment among physicians, guidelines for the management of CD were first published in 2012 by the IBD Study Group of the Korean Association for the Study of the Intestinal Diseases. These are the revised guidelines based on updated evidence, accumulated since 2012. These guidelines were developed by using mainly adaptation methods, and encompass induction and maintenance treatment of CD, treatment based on disease location, treatment of CD complications, including stricture and fistula, surgical treatment, and prevention of postoperative recurrence. These are the second Korean guidelines for the management of CD and will be continuously revised as new evidence is collected.

Abstract
The postbulbar segment also known as the distal duodenum is a separate clinical entity in terms of the intrinsic pathologies of this region and its varied anatomical relations. The common bile duct and the pancreatic duct open through the major papilla, which marks the beginning of this segment. Distal duodenal obstruction can be defined as a clinicoradiological entity that is characterized by features of gastric outlet obstruction with recurrent bilious vomiting and a radiological evidence of postbulbar obstruction. A Medline search for distal duodenal obstruction revealed 1409 entries, mostly in the form of case reports. In the last 10 years, 310 cases are reported. Clinical features like abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting are non-specific and quite similar to gastric outlet obstruction. Clinical findings are also non-specific and do not aid in diagnosis. Laboratory findings also do not add much. Contrast-enhanced CT scan and MR enterography are diagnostic modalities of choice. Distal duodenal obstruction is a clinical entity that has a wide list of differential diagnosis which requires due consideration in terms of its management and follow-up. Most of these lesions require adequate workup with the help of a multidisciplinary team consisting of radiologists, gastroenterologists, and pathologists to adequately diagnose and stage the disease before a treatment plan is formulated. A thorough knowledge is a must regarding the treatment options available for each of the conditions so that the management can be personalized leading to better results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was conducted to report the short- and long-term outcomes of surgery for coloduodenal fistula in Crohn's disease and explore the effect of preoperative optimization on surgical outcome. METHODS This is a retrospective review of 34 patients with coloduodenal fistula complicating Crohn's disease between Jan 2008 and May 2015. Demographic information, preoperative management, and intraoperative and postoperative outcome data were collected. RESULTS Primary duodenal repair was carried out in 33 patients (13 with duodenal defect >3 cm), and bypass surgery was performed in one patient with duodenal stenosis. Patients undergoing preoperative optimization (n = 25) had decreased postoperative major (24.0 vs. 87.5 %, P = 0.005) and intra-abdominal septic (20.0 vs. 75.0 %, P = 0.008) complications compared to patients with emergent/semi-emergent surgery (n = 8). No duodenal stenosis occurred on a median follow-up of 22.5 months. Patients with duodenum-ileocolic anastomosis fistula had longer postoperative stay (14.0 vs. 10.0 days, P = 0.032) and increased possibility of refistulization of the duodenum on follow-up (30.0 vs. 0 %, P = 0.031) compared with those with spontaneous duodenum-colonic fistula. CONCLUSION Primary duodenal repair can be safely performed in coloduodenal fistula in Crohn's disease provided there was no duodenal stenosis, even for large duodenal defects. Preoperative optimization is associated with reduced postoperative complications. Patients with duodenum-ileocolic anastomosis fistula are more likely to have duodenum fistula recurrence compared to those with spontaneous duodenum-colonic fistula.

Abstract
Many patients with Crohn’s disease (CD) require surgery. Indications for surgery include failure of medical treatment, bowel obstruction, fistula or abscess formation. The most common surgical procedure is resection. In jejunoileal CD, strictureplasty is an accepted surgical technique that relieves the obstructive symptoms, while preserving intestinal length and avoiding the development of short bowel syndrome. However, the role of strictureplasty in duodenal and colonic diseases remains controversial. In extensive colitis, after total colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis (IRA), the recurrence rates and functional outcomes are reasonable. For patients with extensive colitis and rectal involvement, total colectomy and end-ileostomy is safe and effective; however, a few patients can have subsequent IRA, and half of the patients will require proctectomy later. Proctocolectomy is associated with a high incidence of delayed perineal wound healing, but it carries a low recurrence rate. Patients undergoing proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis had poor functional outcomes and high failure rates. Laparoscopic surgery has been introduced as a minimal invasive procedure. Patients who undergo laparoscopic surgery have a more rapid recovery of bowel function and a shorter hospital stay. The morbidity also is lower, and the rate of disease recurrence is similar compared with open procedures.
