Abstract
The incidence and prevalence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is on the rise in North America and worldwide, with young children being the fastest growing patient population. It is therefore essential for pediatricians and pediatric sub-specialists to be able to recognize signs and symptoms suspicious for a new diagnosis of IBD, as well as potential complications associated with IBD or its treatment. This article reviews the most recent literature regarding clinical presentation, helpful diagnostic clues, newer monitoring tools being used by pediatric gastroenterologists, and emerging new biologic and small molecule treatments.
