Abstract:
Patients with chronic liver disease have a higher surgical risk compared with those without. For patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), literature has shown that earlier surgical intervention for those with severe IBD has led to better outcomes regarding mortality and remission. For patients who have both IBD and chronic liver disease, management can be complex. The outcomes in this population of patients who undergo surgical intervention have not been thoroughly explored. This case series aims to evaluate surgical outcomes in patients with a diagnosis of both IBD and primary sclerosing cholangitis chronic liver disease.

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...
