    Background:

    • Crohn's disease frequently causes small bowel strictures, leading to obstruction and malnutrition.
    • Conventional treatments like bowel resection risk short-bowel syndrome, particularly in diffuse jejunoileitis.
    • Strictureplasty offers an alternative to preserve bowel length while relieving obstruction.
