Abstract
Crohn's disease follows a relapsing-remitting course. Under long-standing transmural inflammation, patients develop structural bowel damage. Stricture is a severe complication of Crohn's disease, affecting a considerable proportion of patients. Clinical management of these patients follows a stepwise approach, with surgical intervention being the ultimate treatment modality for some cases. Drawing on the published literature, this review begins with the pathological mechanisms and clinical classification of stricturing Crohn's disease, outlines the concept of stepwise disease management, focuses on the principles of surgical intervention and the clinical application of strictureplasty and intestinal anastomotic techniques, and shares the practical experience of our center.
