Sažetak
Introduction and aim: In every fourth person with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), the diagnosis is made in childhood, before the age of eighteen. We are witnessing a significant increase in the incidence in the last decade and today IBD is one of the most common chronic gastrointestinal diseases of childhood. Recently, incidence in Croatia has been determined (7.05/100,000 children below 18 years), confirming that the incidence resembles those in developed countries. Material and methods: With the aim to enable early diagnosis and assure adequate treatment with currently emerging new therapies, the Croatian Society of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition of the Croatian Medical Association has developed guidelines for the diagnosis and pharmacological treatment of IBD in children, taking into account relevant European guidelines, scientific literature
and expert opinions of members of this society who are providing long-term care of these patients. Results: These guidelines represent detailed recommendation for the diagnosis and treatment of Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis with proposed diagnostic and therapeutic algorithms, medication dosing regimens and possible side effects. Conclusion: Early diagnosis and personally tailored therapy are key factors in preventing disease complication and for and for assuring normal growth and development in children with IBD.
