Crohn's disease limited to the appendix is uncommon. When Crohn's disease affects the appendix it typically has a longer clinical course than most cases of acute appendicitis. The diagnosis is histological. Appendiceal Crohn's disease has a benign course after surgery, and that's why some authors believe that it could be a different entity which should be better addressed to as "Idiopathic Granulomatosus Appendicitis". We present three new cases of Crohn's disease limited to the appendix.
局限于阑尾的克罗恩病并不常见。当克罗恩病累及阑尾时，其临床病程通常比大多数急性阑尾炎病例更长。诊断依靠组织学检查。阑尾克罗恩病术后病程呈良性，这就是为什么一些作者认为它可能是一种不同的疾病实体，更应被称为“特发性肉芽肿性阑尾炎”。我们报告三例局限于阑尾的克罗恩病新病例。
