| Core Tip |
Pediatric Crohn’s disease can coexist with chronic non-bacterial osteomyelitis and spondyloarthropathy, creating a severe autoinflammatory phenotype linked to NOD2 variants. This case demonstrates that persistent skeletal pain in inflammatory bowel disease patients requires a high index of suspicion for multifocal bone involvement. Whole-body magnetic resonance imaging should be considered for mapping total inflammatory load and preventing irreversible structural damage, such as cervical fusion. Management often necessitates a multi-target approach, utilizing JAK inhibitors and bisphosphonates to address refractory systemic inflammation and preserve skeletal integrity. |
