Summary

This study tests whether removing a larger area of tissue (the mesentery) during surgery for Crohn's disease can lower the chance of the disease returning. About 204 adults with Crohn's in the last part of the small intestine will be randomly assigned to standard or extended surgery. The main goal is to see if there are fewer signs of recurrence one year after the operation.
