Perianal fistulae are a common complication of Crohn’s disease (CD) and represent 17–43% of all localizations. Fistulas arise before diagnosis at an early stage of the disease. Young age, male sex, smoking and genetic factors are disposing features [1,2]. Sometimes, mostly in patients without a previous diagnosis of IBD, it can be difficult to correctly interpret certain specific presentations of perianal disorders.

Abstract
Perianal fistulae are a common complication of Crohn’s disease (CD) and represent 17–43% of all localizations. Fistulas arise before diagnosis at an early stage of the disease. Young age, male sex, smoking and genetic factors are disposing features [1,2]. Sometimes, mostly in patients without a previous diagnosis of IBD, it can be difficult to correctly interpret certain specific presentations of perianal disorders.File in questo prodotto:
