Abstract
The paper presents a case of Crohn’s disease with isolated jejunum involvement, which exemplifies the difficulty in diagnosing this condition. The clinical picture was characterized by iron-deficiency anemia and hypoproteinemia, while other typical symptoms were absent. The late diagnosis, delayed pathogenetic therapy administration led to multiple jejunum stenosis, complicated by partial small bowel obstruction.
