Blood Test

•CP with morphology: Normocytic normocromic anemia of chronic disease•Serum B12 level may be low.•Raised ESR, CRP and raised WBC count.•Hypo albuminaemia.•Blood culture in septicaemia.

•Fe deficiency anemia•Raised white cell and platelet count•Raised ESR, CRP•Hypo albuminaemia

Serological Test

•Saccharamyces cerevisiae antibody is usually present•P-ANCA negative

•P-ANCA may be positive

Stool culture

•Should always be performed in both to rule out infective cause

Radiology

Plain ABD. X-ray:•Intestinal obstruction or displacement of bowel loops by a mass.

•Extent of the disease can be judge by air distribution in the colon and the presence of colonic dialatation

Ultrasound:•Thickened small bowel loops and mesentery or abscess

•Thickening of colonic wall and presence of free fluid in abdominal cavity

Barium follow through:•Asymmetrical alteration mucosal pattern with narrowing or stricturing.•Skip lesions

•Fine mucosal granularity•Mucosa become thickenned and superficial ulcers are seen (collar-button ulcers)•Loss of haustration
