Summary

The perianal lesions (LAP) specific for Crohn's disease have been reported in 1938, six years after the first cases of luminal disease. If phenotypic data of the latter are well documented today, those of perianal disease remain inadequately described. The reasons are numerous: understated symptoms by patients, elementary semiotics proctology ignored by practitioners, lack of validated classifications to track these violations and challenges to undertake clinical trials to high standard of proof in view of these variables, etc. ... Moreover, the impact of these LAP varies across studies (10-80%). in addition to the above-mentioned reasons, these results are also due to the different definitions of LAP used in the studies, their collection in reference centers versus tertiary centers, their potential occurrence at any time of disease progression, their greater frequency in case of distal disease (12% for infringement isolated ileal, 15% in breach ileo colic, 41% in case of colonic involvement and 91% in case of rectal involvement). Yet the specific LAP should be better documented because they are a factor of poor prognosis of Crohn's disease.
