Abstract
Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease with different phenotypes of presentation, inflammatory, penetrating, or stricturing disease, that significantly impacts patient well-being and quality of life. Despite advances in medical therapy, surgery sometimes represents the only treatment to address complications, such as strictures, fistulas, or abscesses. Minimizing postoperative recurrence (POR) remains a major challenge for both clinicians and patients; consequently, various therapeutic strategies have been developed to prevent or delay POR. The current review outlines an updated overview of POR management. We focused on diagnostic assessment, which included endoscopic examination, biochemical analyses, and cross-sectional imaging techniques, all crucial tools used to accurately diagnose this condition. Additionally, we delved into the associated risk factors contributing to POR development. Furthermore, we examined recent advances in the prophylaxis and treatment of POR in CD.

Abstract
Despite the introduction of biological therapies, an ileocolonic resection is often required in patients with Crohn's disease [CD]. Unfortunately, surgery is not curative, as many patients will develop postoperative recurrence [POR], eventually leading to further bowel damage and a decreased quality of life. The 8th Scientific Workshop of ECCO reviewed the available scientific data on both prevention and treatment of POR in patients with CD undergoing an ileocolonic resection, dealing with conventional and biological therapies, as well as non-medical interventions, including endoscopic and surgical approaches in case of POR. Based on the available data, an algorithm for the postoperative management in daily clinical practice was developed.

The Relationship Between Endoscopic and Clinical Recurrence in Postoperative Crohn's Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. J Crohns Colitis 2021; 16:490-499.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS We aimed to quantify the magnitude of the association between endoscopic recurrence and clinical recurrence [symptom relapse] in patients with postoperative Crohn's disease. METHODS Databases were searched to October 2, 2020, for randomised controlled trials [RCTs] and cohort studies of adult patients with Crohn's disease with ileocolonic resection and anastomosis. Summary effect estimates for the association between clinical recurrence and endoscopic recurrence were quantified by risk ratios [RR] and 95% confidence intervals [95% CI]. Mixed-effects meta-regression evaluated the role of confounders. Spearman correlation coefficients were calculated to assess the relationship between these outcomes as endpoints in RCTs. An exploratory mixed-effects meta-regression model with the logit of the rate of clinical recurrence as the outcome and the rate of endoscopic recurrence as a predictor was also evaluated. RESULTS In all, 37 studies [N = 4053] were included. For eight RCTs with available data, the RR for clinical recurrence for patients who experienced endoscopic recurrence was 10.77 [95% CI 4.08 to 28.40; GRADE moderate certainty evidence]; the corresponding estimate from 11 cohort studies was 21.33 [95% CI 9.55 to 47.66; GRADE low certainty evidence]. A single cohort study showed a linear relationship between Rutgeerts score and clinical recurrence risk. There was a strong correlation between endoscopic recurrence and clinical recurrence treatment effect estimates as trial outcomes [weighted Spearman correlation coefficient 0.51]. CONCLUSIONS The associations between endoscopic recurrence and subsequent clinical recurrence lend support to the choice of endoscopic recurrence to monitor postoperative disease activity and as a primary endpoint in clinical trials of postoperative Crohn's disease.
