    <abstract locale="en_US">Crohn's disease is a type of chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) of unknown etiology that may affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract from mouth to anus and shows extra-intestinal involvement. It characteristically shows skip lesions. This case report reported in 2014 describes a middle age Pakistani male known to have documented evidence of significant crohn's disease since past 18 years. He was diagnosed with multiple fistulas that are a rare entity of patients with crohn's disease, which is itself a rare disease in Asian countries.
