Core Tip	This review summarizes and updates the current state of the field of post-operative prevention of Crohn’s disease (CD) after surgery. This review starts by discussing the natural history of postoperative recurrence followed by a summary of the most consistent and evidence based risk factors. We then discuss the evidence for medical prophylaxis of CD highlighting new data regarding biologics. Finally we discuss cost effectiveness and provide a potential novel treatment algorithm for a clinician to use practically when caring for a patient with CD after surgery.
