Description

Part seven of seven: Dr Alexandra Kent, Consultant Gastroenterologist at King’s College Hospital, is joined by Professor Jimmy Limdi, Head of the IBD section at the Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust, to explore how Crohn's Disease recurrence is defined, predicted, monitored, and managed after surgery as recommended in the BSG IBD Guidelines. Together, they discuss the continuum of post-operative recurrence from histological and endoscopic changes to clinical and surgical relapse. They highlight key patient, disease, and surgical risk factors, including smoking and aggressive disease phenotypes. The episode covers best practice for post-operative monitoring, including the role of ileocolonoscopy, Rutgeerts scoring, faecal calprotectin, intestinal ultrasound, and cross-sectional imaging.
