Abstract
A new case of Crohn's disease was discovered due to a perforation of t he small bowel into the free peritoneum. We recall the epidemiological , clinical and pathogenic features of this rare incident. On the basis of the data in the literature, we propose a discussion of the surgica l techniques used. Resection appears to be preferred Anastomosis is us ually performed later except in exceptional selected cases.
