Medical treatment of Crohn's disease.

Abstract:

:Crohn's disease is not medically (and is rarely surgically) curable. Patients do, however, live a normal life span. The goal of therapy is to optimize the quality of life, minimize disease activity and disease-related complications, and avoid therapeutic toxicity.
