Abstract

Thromboembolic events are well recognised in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We present three cases which highlight the need for vigilance with respect to this complication. We also propose that consideration be given to re-evaluating disease activity in those patients who develop thromboembolic complications.
