  history of crohn's disease: Origins and Directions of Inflammatory Bowel Disease Joseph B. Kirsner, 2012-12-06 Few human illnesses today are so challenging, medically, scientifically, and socio-economically, as the nonspecific inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD): ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. Originating several centuries ago but essentially diseases of the 20th century, often attacking children and young adults, involving all bodily systems as well as the gastrointestinal tract, ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease have emerged in recent decades as among the more glamorous unsolved diseases, presenting unusual opportunities for insightful clinical and investigative study. Many of the prevailing concepts originated during the early and mid 20th century. The purpose of Origins and Directions of Inflammatory Bowel Disease is to review these earlier studies and their evolution from the mystical to the molecular, and guide investigators and physicians through the challenging clinical and scientific maze of IBD.

  history of crohn's disease: Non-neoplastic Pathology of the Gastrointestinal Tract Roger Feakins, 2019 Prior to the development of the first fibre-optic endoscopes in the 1960's, gastroenterology, in common with other traditional medical specialties, relied on biochemical and radiological techniques in order to investigate the gastrointestinal tract. Histological confirmation of a disease process usually required the presence of a surgeon, was invasive, and carried inherent risks. Because of a rapid improvement in technology, we are now able to sample the entire gastrointestinal tract from the mouth and anus through to the ileal / jejunal junction--
  history of crohn's disease: Surgical Pathology of Non-neoplastic Gastrointestinal Diseases Lizhi Zhang, Vishal S.

  history of crohn's disease: A Cure for Crohn's David N Armstrong MD, 2021-06-20 A Cure for Crohn's is a true life medical mystery of how the cause of a disease which affects 1.5 million Americans, mostly adolescents, has been kept undercover from the public.An identical disease occurs in cattle, called Johne's disease (pronounced Yo-nee's), which is caused by a bacterium, mycobacterium avium paratuberculosis, or MAP. MAP is carried by flocks of migrating birds which contaminate the pasturelands, causing Johne's disease in dairy cattle. MAP is then secreted in the cow's milk, finds its way into consumer milk products and causes Crohn's disease in susceptible individuals. Supposedly to avert a public panic, the link between Johne's disease, Crohn's disease and milk has been dismissed by government agencies. Originally, MAP could not be identified in Crohn's disease specimens and the theory was dismissed as fearmongering. However, with more modern DNA analysis, MAP's genetic fingerprints have been identified in practically every Crohn's disease specimen examined. At last, the perpetrator had been uncovered and an effective antibiotic treatment is emerging. At last - A Cure for Crohn's.

  history of crohn's disease: Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis Daniel C. Baumgart, 2012-02-02 The conditions of Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis are excellent examples of how the exponential growth of knowledge in biomedical science can make a remarkable impact on clinical practice and patient’s quality of life. It has led to the development of unique novel immunomodulatory treatments. These are continuously being refined to treat not only the two original conditions in the gut, but the systemic immunologic illness with its associated extraintestinal disorders. New therapies are sometimes complex and associated with important risks requiring a deeper understanding of their molecular principles from clinicians. Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis serves as a unique combined resource for physicians and scientists addressing the needs of both groups. It will stimulate exchange and collaboration and shorten the path between discovery and application of new knowledge and also help clinicians understand new therapeutic concepts from their origins. This volume provides an introduction to mucosal immunology which forms the basis of modern immunotherapy. It also serves as a comprehensive guide to the current diagnostic modalities, including enhanced imaging techniques such as MRI and CT enterography, virtual colonoscopy, ultrasound, and endomicroscopy as well as conventional and complex immunomodulatory principles. Each chapter is written by experts in their field and includes the most up to date information. Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis will be of great value to gastroenterologists, surgeons, internists, pediatricians and gynecologists trainees, as well as all those involved in Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis and related autoimmune disorders.
