Article Synopsis
- Thromboembolic events, particularly splanchnic vein thrombosis (SVT), occur frequently in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), but there is limited data on their prevalence and outcomes.
- A study using data from the Spanish ENEIDA registry analyzed 49 new cases of SVT and reviewed 318 additional cases from the literature, highlighting that most cases involved Crohn's disease and presented with abdominal pain, often identified incidentally.
- The majority of patients received anticoagulation therapy, leading to a significant rate of resolution of SVT, indicating that while SVT is rare or underdiagnosed in IBD patients, it’s associated with disease activity and can have favorable outcomes with appropriate treatment.
