[Rheumatologic syndrome in gastrointestinal diseases. Clinical and pathogenetic aspects]
Abstract:
Patients with reactive arthritis, sacroiliitis, spondylitis or Reiter's syndrome following intestinal infection from Yersinia, Salmonella, Shigella or Campylobacter organisms have been reported from endemic areas and after epidemic dysenteries. Possession of the antigen HLA B27 affects severity and prognosis of the arthritis and is more often associated with spondylitis and Reiter's syndrome. Articular manifestations are also quite common systemic complications of chronic inflammatory bowel disease. The clinical picture, pathogenetical aspects and treatment of arthritis associated with Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis and Whipple's disease are reviewed. In only few cases, coeliac disease can be complicated by arthritis. In patients undergoing intestinal bypass surgery systemically absorption of intestinal bacterial antigens and immune complex formation may contribute to the development of bypass-arthropathy and dermatologic manifestations.

Chronic Bowel Disorders: Introduction
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a common disorder affecting the gastrointestinal tract. The distinctive feature is recurrent abdominal pain associated with altered bowel movements, manifesting as constipation, diarrhea, or fluctuating between both. The...
Inflammatory Bowel Disease II: Crohn's Disease
Inflammatory bowel disease, commonly known as IBD, refers to a collection of disorders that lead to persistent inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. The two types of IBD are ulcerative colitis, which impacts the colon, and Crohn's disease, which can involve any part of the gastrointestinal segment.
Crohn's disease
Crohn's disease is a chronic, systemic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that predominantly affects the gastrointestinal tract. It is marked by transmural...
