[Bronchopulmonary lesions in chronic inflammatory bowel diseases]
Abstract:
The paper reviews the literature on bronchopulmonary lesion, one of the least studied systemic manifestations associated with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Knowledge of the entire diversity of extraintestinal manifestations of IBD, including respiratory diseases, allows clinicians to optimize their diagnosis and treatment as the asymptomatic course of the latter may lead to the development of severe respiratory complications. The detection of bronchopulmonary pathology in its early period or during current therapy contributes to the objective assessment of the pattern of the disease, to the correction of treatment and improvement of disease prognosis.
