Abstract
Crohn's disease is a chronic granulomatous disorder, which can involve the gastrointestinal tract from mouth to anus. Although extraintestin al manifestations involving the eyes, joints and skin are common, invo lvement of skin distant to the gastrointestinal tract is uncommon. We report a case of Crohn's disease involving the skin of the penis.
