Abstract

The purpose of the article is to demonstrate a clinical case of Crohn’s disease in an 8-year-old child. Materials and methods: The given clinical example is a case of a non-classical variant of the course of Crohn’s disease in an 8-year-old child who debuted with an upper respiratory tract lesion in combination with abdominal pain against the background of long courses of antibacterial therapy. Conclusion: This clinical case demonstrates the complexity of the diagnostic search, the need for careful history collection and differential diagnosis.
