Two surgical stitch methods for Crohn’s bowel surgery
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial compares two surgical ways of connecting the bowel in people with Crohn’s disease who need bowel resection (removal of a diseased bowel segment) and then reconnect it. If you qualify, the study may help show which method is safer or leads to better recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have Crohn’s disease and your doctors plan bowel resection surgery with reconnection (an anastomosis).
- Your planned connection is specifically an ileocolic anastomosis (joining the small intestine to the large intestine).
- Your surgeon expects you to need a stapled anastomosis approach under the study plan.
- You can sign a written consent form to take part in the study.
- You have not had an enterostomy planned or placed (a stoma/opening created for stool drainage).

This trial tests whether a specific type of bowel connection during Crohn’s surgery can lower the chances that the disease comes back. It may help people having their first ileocolonic (small-to-large bowel) surgery for certain Crohn’s complications.
This trial compares two ways of reconnecting the bowel after removing diseased intestine in people with Crohn’s disease. The goal is to see which method works better for healing and short- and longer-term outcomes.
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 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 looks at treatments for a new (de novo) narrow area in the bowel from Crohn’s disease. It aims to see which treatment works better at relieving blockage-type symptoms for the safest, most effective option.
This trial compares two ways of reconnecting the bowel after surgery in people with Crohn’s disease that affects the small intestine and/or colon. It aims to see which reconnection method works better after the initial surgery, even if you’re on Crohn’s medicines before the operation.
