Association between Fecal Calprotectin and Mucosal Healing in Pediatric Patients with Crohn’s Disease Who Have Achieved Sustained Clinical Remission with Anti-Tumor Necrosis Factor Agents

: Although mucosal healing (MH) is acknowledged as the treatment target in the treat-to-target era, there are limitations on repeated endoscopic examinations, especially in pediatric patients. We aimed to investigate whether fecal calprotectin (FC) could serve as a surrogate marker for the assessment of MH in pediatric patients with Crohn's disease (CD) who have achieved sustained clinical remission (CR) while treated with anti-tumor necrosis...
