description Isolated gastric Crohn's disease is unusual and a rare cause of pyloric outlet obstruction.

Herein we describe a patient with isolated gastric Crohn's disease with pyloric outlet obstruction who was steroid-dependent and had a relapse despite receiving biologic and immunomodulatory therapy, but ultimately responded to topical treatment with inhaled corticosteroids.
