Abstract
Crohn's disease can affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract. Gastroduodenal involvement is uncommon and was not recognised until 1949 (1). Since then approximately 200 cases have been described in several series in the world literature. This paper describes the clinical presentation and surgical management of ten patients treated in the Birmingham General Hospital between 1970 and 1984.
