| Core Tip |
This is a retrospective study to evaluate the presence of submucosal and myenteric plexitis and its role in predicting postoperative recurrence (POR) in Crohn’s disease. Demographic data, smoking habits, previous resection, treatment before and after surgery, and histological findings were evaluated as possible predictors of POR. We found that the severity of submucosal plexitis was a predictor of the need for second surgery. Other predictors of POR were female gender, stricturing disease behavior, and isolated ileal localization. Our results did not confirm the hypothesis that myenteric plexitis can be predictive of postoperative relapse. |
