Abstract
The association between celiac disease (CeD) and Crohn's disease (CD) is rare, but some clinical cases suggest a pathophysiological interaction between these two chronic inflammatory bowel diseases. We present three observations of patients with this dual association. The clinical manifestations, biological results, endoscopic investigations and treatments varied from case to case, but all patients showed a favourable response to combined treatment with a gluten-free diet and immunosuppressive or biological therapy. These observations highlight the importance of considering the co-occurrence of coeliac disease and Crohn's disease in the differential diagnosis and treatment of patients with complex gastrointestinal symptoms.
