Abstract:
An adult patient with cystic fibrosis and chronic abdominal complaints developed symptomatic fibrosing colonopathy several months after the beginning of high dose pancreas enzyme therapy. Despite the absence of a stricture, surgical resection was performed. Since then the abdominal complaints have not recurred.
