Background: Crohn's disease (CD) is characterized by heterogeneity of phenotype. The Vienna classification can be used to classify CD, and recent data illustrate that behavior evolves over the course of the disease. Clinical and biological influences on disease progression remain unclear. We examined the associations of CD disease progression at diagnosis and for up to 20 years of follow-up. Methods: Two hundred thirty-one well-characterized CD patients were studied. Demographic, clinical, and NOD2/CARD15 data were collected. Disease behavior according to the Vienna classification was assessed at diagnosis and for up to 20 years following diagnosis. Results: At diagnosis, 70% of patients had inflammatory disease, 9% stricturing. and 21% penetrating. Early age at diagnosis was associated with ileocolonic and upper G1 disease (p = 0.015), and positive anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae antibody (ASCA) was associated with ileal invovement (p = 0.008). Smoking was relatively protective against colonic, rather than ileal involvement at diagnosis (p < 0.02). At 20 years, 92% had progressed to a more severe disease type. Patients who progress to a more severe disease type require more frequent surgery, (p < 0.00001). Multivariate analysis found disease progression to be associated with ileal disease location (p = 0.001) and positive ASCA (p = 0.003). Variant NOD2/CARD15 alleles were protective against rapid progression of disease phenotype (p = 0.04). The presence of perianal disease was independent of intestinal penetrating disease. Conclusions: The progression of disease type in CD is associated with the need for more frequent surgery. Rapid progression is associated with ileal disease and positive ASCA, and delayed progression is associated with variant NOD2/CARD15 alleles. Consideration should be given to a separate Vienna classification for perianal disease.
