In this online, self-learning activity: Crohn s disease (CD) is an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) defined by a transmural process that often occurs in the terminal ileum; although, any portion of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract can be affected. While the exact etiology of CD is unknown, a handful of genetic, immunologic, and environmental risk factors have been identified, including an impaired immune response to commensal or pathogenic intestinal microbiota that drives mucosal inflammation in genetically susceptible patients. About 34,000 children in the United States have CD, and the incidence of pediatric CD has increased by about 10% annually since 2007.
