Crohn’s disease can affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract with the most common site being the ileocecal region. The acute, active phase is marked by aphthous mucosal ulcerations, lymphoid aggregates, and granulomas present in both the bowel wall, adjacent lymph nodes, and in other organs. Transmural inflammation is present with characteristic fissures and ulcers extending deep into the muscularis propria. The acquiescent or healing phase of Crohn’s disease is marked by fibrosis with late stricture formation and chronic ulceration.
