- Original description
This pilot study aims to detect possible trends or signals suggesting efficacy of FMT on prevention of delay of POR, to determine the safety of FMT in post operative CD, and asses if a full randomised controlled trial is feasible in this setting. With microbiota analysis we aim to assess if changes in gut microbiota are related to disease course of CD after operation.Read full original descriptionShow less
