Low Rates of Surgical Recurrence Following Ileocolic Resections for Crohn’s Disease in the Biologic Era

Reports on the rates of surgical recurrence at the ileocolic resection site in the biologic era are limited. The surgical recurrence rates at the ileocolic resection site in Australia (2007-2023) were 4.5% (95% confidence interval, 2.8%-6.1%) and 12.8% (95% confidence interval, 8.8%-16.5%) at 5 and 10 years, respectively. Smoking was the only risk factor significantly associated.
