The Impact of Crohn’s Perianal Fistula on Quality of Life: Results of an International Patient Survey
August 2023
An international patient survey examined the impact of Crohn’s perianal fistula on patients' quality of life. Patients with both Crohn’s disease and perianal fistulae reported significantly greater negative effects on overall quality of life, well-being, relationships, social life, and work life compared to those with only Crohn’s disease. The study highlights the need for targeted therapeutic strategies to address these burdens.
