Study of recovery outcomes after Crohn’s surgery in children
Treatments studied
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at outcomes after children with Crohn’s disease have part of the bowel removed (ileo-cecal resection). It may help doctors improve post-surgery care, especially for preventing flare-ups in the months after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child has Crohn’s disease
- Your child is age 6 to 17 years
- Surgery: your child had an ileo-cecal resection within the last 3 months
- Right now there is no active problem around the anus (no draining fistula, no abscess)
- Your child has started prevention medicine after surgery (either thiopurines or an anti-TNF drug)
- Your child is not pregnant, and does not have serious kidney problems or current severe infection

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study follows children newly diagnosed with Crohn’s disease to see how results from scans and endoscopy (camera scope) relate to outcomes over the first year. It may help doctors choose better early treatment plans and monitor children more effectively.
This study follows adults with Crohn’s disease who need surgery to remove the ileocecal area. It aims to better understand post-operative outcomes and what to expect after the operation.
This study tests whether a special surgical technique (mesentery-embedding) is safe for people with Crohn's disease who need ileocolic surgery and are already on a biologic medication. It aims to see if this method can help reduce complications.
This study looks at how cells in the intestine process waste (a process called autophagy) in children with Crohn's disease. It aims to better understand the disease and may lead to better treatments in the future.
This study compares two ways to choose biologic (targeted) medicines after Crohn’s surgery to help stop Crohn’s from coming back in the bowel. It may help you avoid or delay repeat inflammation by adjusting treatment based on endoscopy findings.
This study compares medical treatment with surgery for people with Crohn's disease who have a narrowing (stricture) in their small intestine that causes blockages. The goal is to see which approach is better at managing symptoms and preventing complications.
