    Notes: Abstract Previous reports suggest that up to 70% of patients undergoing surgery for Crohn's disease of the large bowel do not have gastrointestinal continuity restored and require a permanent ileostomy. In this study the experience with patients requiring surgical treatment of large bowel Crohn's disease is reviewed with particular reference to the management of the rectum. The records of 19 elective and 25 urgent colonic resections performed for large bowel Crohn's disease in 44 patients (16 males, 28 females; mean age 41 years, range 17–76) between 1983 and 1995 were reviewed. Staged proctectomy was performed in 5 of 12 patients who had colectomy for acute colitis and in one patient who had had an elective colectomy. Permanent ileostomy was required in 72% of patients with acute Crohn's colitis and 84% of patients who had elective surgery for large bowel Crohn's. Over 70% of patients having surgical treatment of Crohn's disease of the large bowel required permanent ileostomy. No cases of cancer developed in patients with retained rectal stumps.

    Notes: Abstract In order to study the effect of clofazimine, a powerful antimycobacterial and antiinflammatory agent, 49 patients with active Crohn's disease were randomized to either corticosteroids plus clofazimine 100 mg daily (N=25) or to steroids and matching placebo (N=24). A total of 28 patients (58%) went into disease remission (clofazimine 16, placebo 12;P=NS) with a fall in disease activity score from 10.5±4.4 to 3.3±3.5. Patients were treated for a further eight months with clofazimine or placebo and 18 of 28 maintained their remission and completed the study (clofazimine 12, placebo 6;P=NS). Side effects were minor and consisted of skin rash and increased pigmentation. Clofazimine as a solitary antimycobacterial agent appears ineffective in inducing remission in Crohn's disease but may have a role in either disease maintenance or combination chemotherapy.
