Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a debilitating disorder that can manifest in many ways and affect multiple organ systems outside the gastrointestinal tract. Extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs) are common in both ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease and include dermatologic, musculoskeletal, ophthalmologic, and hepatobiliary systems. This study reviews details the most common EIMs of IBD, including their presentation, diagnosis, clinical course, and treatment considerations.
