Multivariate analysis suggests improved perioperative outcome in Crohn’s disease patients receiving immunomodulator therapy after segmental resection and/or strictureplasty IASC developed in 11 of 100 (11%) operations. Immunomodulator use was associated with fewer IASC (4/72 procedures; 5.6%), compared with 7/28 (25%) cases with patients not on therapy (P < .01). Grace S. Tay, MD,; et al; Surgery 2003;134:565-73.)
Laparoscopic resection with transcolonic specimen extraction for ileocaecal Crohn’s disease British Journal of Surgery 2010; 97: 569–574 Conclusion: Transcolonic removal of the specimen in ileocolic Crohn’s disease is feasible in the absence of a large inflammatory mass but infection may be a problem. It is unclear whether the technique offers benefit compared with conventional laparoscopic surgery

Additionally, long, high-grade strictures resulting from extremely thickened and rigid intestinal wall are often not amenable to strictureplasty and therefore require resection
