Colon Removal and Enteropathic Arthritis

 

Question  Would removal of the colon eliminate the enteropathic arthritis?
 
Answer  Probably but enteropathic arthritis is most commonly associated with the small bowel, not as frequently with the large bowel.  You can live without a large bowel, but you can't live without the small bowel!
