Abstract:
Perianal fistulizing Crohn' s disease (pfCD) is the commonly seen perianal disease in Crohn's disease (CD), and its main treatment is the combined use of medical and surgical therapy on basis of radiological assessment. However, low response rate and high recurrence rate are found in clinical practice. It is of great importance to predict the therapeutic efficacy accurately according to the individual characteristics of patients for improving the prognosis of pfCD. This article reviewed the progress of research on factors related to the therapeutic efficacy of pfCD for helping to develop more specifically targeted treatment strategies.
