Abstract

A case is reported where intractable Crohn's disease responded to chemotherapy for breast carcinoma. The drug most likely responsible was cyclophosphamide. Cyclophosphamide may have a role in the management of inflammatory bowel disease, but this needs to be confirmed before it can be recommended as a treatment option.
