Abstract
Crohn's disease is a relapsing, chronic and inflammatory bowel condition that can involve any part of the gastrointestinal tract from mouth to anus. It was first described in 1932 by Burrill Bernhard Cohen and together with ulcerative colitis it is termed as ‘inflammatory bowel disease’. It is characteristically associated with various extra-intestinal manifestations and increases the lifetime risk of colorectal cancer. The primary care team is important in identifying new cases and in the effective community management of established disease.
