Crohn’s disease: considerations for treatment choice during pregnancy
Abstract
This article presents a clinical case of a pregnant patient with Crohn’s disease. When managing pregnant women with inflammatory bowel disease, the priority is maintaining disease remission using medications approved for use during pregnancy, including modern genetically engineered biological therapies, to preserve the health of both mother and fetus. In this case, the situation was complicated by a history of multiple surgeries and a functioning ileostomy. Collaborative care by a multidisciplinary team of specialists prevented complications and resulted in a successful pregnancy, delivery, and postpartum period.
