About this listen
Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D.
Guest: Edward V. Loftus JR, M.D.
Inflammatory Bowel Disease is somewhat of an umbrella term for a group of chronic inflammatory conditions of the GI tract. The most common types include ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s Disease. While there are similarities between the two, there are also differences. For many individuals with inflammatory bowel disease, it’s only a mild illness. Unfortunately for some, it can lead to severe disability and potentially life-threatening complications. What are the similarities and differences between ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s? When should we suspect a patient has an inflammatory bowel disease? What’s the best way to establish a diagnosis and finally, what treatment options do we have? These are just some of the questions I’ll be asking my guest, Edward V. Loftus JR, M.D., from the Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology at the Mayo Clinic as we discuss “Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Its Treatment”.
