Abstract

The incidence of inflammatory bowel disease in children under six years of age, known as very early-onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEO-IBD) has been increasing. VEO-IBD has distinct clinical phenotypes, treatment response and outcomes, however the role of surgical intervention remains poorly understood. This study examines surgical management in this population.
