What are the complications of inflammatory bowel disease?

Complications of inflammatory bowel disease include gastrointestinal bleeding, intestinal perforation, colon cancer, primary sclerosing cholangitis, thrombosis, intestinal obstruction and malnutrition. 1. Gastrointestinal bleeding: due to the infiltration of the intestinal mucosa caused by inflammation, erosion, ulceration and bleeding occur. 2. Intestinal perforation: when the intestinal ulcer is deep, it may cause intestinal perforation leading to hemorrhage. 3. Colon cancer: the presence of serious damage to the intestinal mucosa and repeated attacks may easily induce cancer. 4. Primary sclerosing cholangitis: Inflammatory intestinal peripheral tissues and organs spread, causing inflammation in the bile ducts causing bile duct stenosis, and bile stasis inducing primary sclerosing catheterization. 5. Thrombosis: inflammatory bowel disease will also increase the risk of thrombosis, need to pay attention to monitoring coagulation function. 6. Bowel obstruction: The inflammation caused by inflammatory bowel disease can lead to bowel obstruction. Inflammatory bowel disease is recommended to consult the doctor and actively give treatment to avoid complications.
