Crone's Disease
Ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease so called incurable chronic diseases of the intestinal tract.
As many as 4 million people (including one million Americans, 23,000
Australians, and 250,000 Canadians) worldwide suffer from a form IBD. It's estimated that up
to 1 billion dollars in missed work days a year is due to IBD.
The two diseases are often grouped together as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) because
of their similar symptoms.
The most common symptoms of IBD include, but are not limited to:
* Abdominal pain;
* Weight loss;
* Fever;
* Rectal bleeding;
* Skin and eye irritations;
* Diarrhea.
Intervals of active disease, or 'flares', and periods of remission characterize IBD.
Unfortunately the cause of each of these intestinal disorders is poorly understood,
and none of them has no treatment by means of comventional medicine.
The most common treatment is the resection during which surgeons remove a diseased piece of
the intestine and reconnect the two cut ends. Surgeons use stricturplasty to open
up narrowed sections of the intestine by making an incision lengthwise along the stricture
and closing it in the opposite direction. A colostomy, removal of part of the large intestine, or
an ileostomy, removal of the entire large intestine are other surgical procedures.
These treatments are crippled and distressing.
Stem cell therapies are the best solution for these diseases.
