- Abstract
Reactive regional lymph node enlargement is a frequent ultrasonographic finding in patients with Crohn's disease. However, the prevalence of this condition and its clinical significance are unknown. This study assesses the prevalence of enlarged regional mesenteric lymph nodes and its clinical significance in Crohn's disease, and in particular whether there is a correlation between the sonographic detection of enlarged regional lymph nodes and the degree of clinical or biochemical activity of the disease.
