Résumé
Surgical resection in Crohn's disease is sometimes the only alternative treating disease complications or refractory disease. The implications of early resection on disease course are still debatable. We aimed to assess the influence of preoperative disease duration on long-term postoperative disease course. A retrospective analysis of all Crohn's disease patients who underwent an elective primary ileocolic resection between 2010 and 2021 in a single tertiary medical center. The cohort was divided based on disease duration, Group A (47 patients) had a disease duration shorter than 3 years (median of 1 year) and Group B (139 patients) had a disease duration longer than 3 years (median of 11 years). Surgeries were less complex among Group A as noted by higher rates of laparoscopic assisted procedures (68.1% vs. 45.3%, P = 0.006), shorter surgery duration (134 vs. 167 min, P < 0.0001) less estimated blood loss (72.5 vs. 333 mL, P = 0.016) and faster return of bowel function (3 vs. 4 days, P = 0.011). However, propensity score matching nullified all the differences. Younger age (OR = 0.86, P = 0.004), pre-op steroids (OR = 3.69, P = 0.037) and longer disease duration (OR = 1.18, P = 0.012) were found to be independently significantly associated with severe complications. After a median follow-up time of 71.38 months no significant differences were found between the groups in terms of endoscopic (P = 0.59), or surgical recurrences rates (P = 0.82). The main effect of preoperative short disease duration was noted within the surgical complexity; however, matching suggests confounders as cause of the difference. No significant long-term implication was noted on disease recurrence.

BACKGROUND
BACKGROUND
Surgical resection in Crohn's disease is sometimes the only alternative treating disease complications or refractory disease. The implications of early resection on disease course are still debatable. We aimed to assess the influence of preoperative disease duration on long-term postoperative disease course.
METHODS
METHODS
A retrospective analysis of all Crohn's disease patients who underwent an elective primary ileocolic resection between 2010 and 2021 in a single tertiary medical center. The cohort was divided based on disease duration, Group A (47 patients) had a disease duration shorter than 3 years (median of 1 year) and Group B (139 patients) had a disease duration longer than 3 years (median of 11 years).
RESULTS
RESULTS
Surgeries were less complex among Group A as noted by higher rates of laparoscopic assisted procedures (68.1% vs. 45.3%, P = 0.006), shorter surgery duration (134 vs. 167 min, P < 0.0001) less estimated blood loss (72.5 vs. 333 mL, P = 0.016) and faster return of bowel function (3 vs. 4 days, P = 0.011). However, propensity score matching nullified all the differences. Younger age (OR = 0.86, P = 0.004), pre-op steroids (OR = 3.69, P = 0.037) and longer disease duration (OR = 1.18, P = 0.012) were found to be independently significantly associated with severe complications. After a median follow-up time of 71.38 months no significant differences were found between the groups in terms of endoscopic (P = 0.59), or surgical recurrences rates (P = 0.82).
CONCLUSIONS
CONCLUSIONS
The main effect of preoperative short disease duration was noted within the surgical complexity; however, matching suggests confounders as cause of the difference. No significant long-term implication was noted on disease recurrence.
