Abstract

EDITORIAL SYNOPSIS This paper records for the first time the clinico-pathological picture of Crohn's disease affecting the anal canal. It has long been recognized that anal lesions may precede intestinal Crohn's disease, often by some years, but the specific characteristics of the lesion have not hitherto been described. The differential diagnosis is discussed in detail. HISTOLOGY Figures
