Abstract

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a term used
to describe two disorders associated with
gastrointestinal inflammation: Crohn’s disease
(CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). The incidence
of IBD is higher in developed countries, while there is
unpublished data of pediatric IBD in Indonesia.
Clinical manifestations of IBD vary, consist of
gastrointestinal (such as diarrhea and abdominal pain)
and extraintestinal manifestations. Definite diagnosis
of IBD is based on endoscopy and histopathology. The
management includes pharmacotherapy, nutrition,
surgery, and psychotherapy. This disorder has a high
recurrence rate, where CD’s recurrence rate is higher
than UC.1,2
