Abstract:
Leukocytoclastic vasculitis (LCV) is an idiopathic small vessel vasculitis. Leukocytoclastic vasculitis can be found in a spectrum of diseases and is noted as a rare extraintestinal manifestation of Crohn disease. This case report examines a 55-year-old man with a previous diagnosis of Crohn disease who was admitted after 5 days with a persistent rash. A biopsy confirmed LCV, and the patient followed up with dermatology for outpatient treatment. This study adds to the sparse medical literature on LCV cases relating to Crohn disease.

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.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease I: Ulcerative Colitis
Inflammatory bowel disease, or IBD, encompasses a group of disorders characterized by chronic inflammation or ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract.
Risk Factors
The exact cause of IBD remains unclear, although it is believed to be due to a mix of genetic, environmental, microbial, and immune factors. Genetic factors are significant in determining susceptibility to IBD, with family history being a critical risk factor. Individuals with a first-degree relative who has IBD are at...
