Zusammenfassung
Patients with Crohn's disease generally present with chronic diarrhoea and/or abdominal pain. However, it may be the extraintestinal manifestations as orofacial granulomatosis (OFG) - a rare syndrome with chronic swelling of the lips and the lower half of the face combined with oral ulcerations and hyperplastic gingivitis - that urge patients to seek medical advice.
