Overview

Surgical treatment of Crohn´s disease is a part of care of patients primary treated by gastroenterologist. Understanding of surgical principles and indications to surgery improves the quality of care. Therefore, members of IBD Working group of Czech Society of Gastroenterology and Section of IBD Surgery of Czech Surgical Society created guidelines based on recent literature. These guidelines follow previously published 1^st part: Preoperative preparation. Content of this article covers emergent and elective indication to surgery, site specific surgical procedures in Crohn´s disease, description of proper techniques and postoperative complications treatment.

Key words:
guidelines – surgery – Crohn´s disease

The authors declare they have no potential conflicts of interest concerning drugs, products, or services used in the study.

The Editorial Board declares that the manuscript met the ICMJE „uniform requirements“ for biomedical papers.
