Pediatric Metastatic Crohn’s Disease of the Liver

Metastatic Crohn’s disease (MCD) is the manifestation of Crohn’s disease outside of the gastrointestinal tract and most frequently involves mucocutaneous and pulmonary tissues. This is an uncommon phenomenon but is well characterized in the pediatric literature. In contrast, MCD affecting the liver has not previously been described in pediatrics. The pediatric gastroenterologist must be aware of the myriad of Crohn’s disease–associated hepatopathies. We herein present the first reported case of pediatric MCD involving the liver and describe our targeted diagnostic evaluation and the patient’s response to infliximab-dyyb.
