Core Tip	This study highlights the predictive role of histological findings in postoperative Crohn’s disease management. Specifically, neutrophilic cryptitis and crypt abscesses in resected specimens are significantly associated with endoscopic recurrence, as measured by the Rutgeerts score. These findings can guide clinicians in identifying high-risk Crohn’s disease patients for early intervention and intensified endoscopic monitoring to mitigate recurrence risks, with decisions supported by a weekly multidisciplinary council.
