Fat wrapping and mesenteric hypertrophy are characteristics of Crohn's disease (CD). In patients with CD, mesenteric adipose tissue releases higher levels of adiponectin, which could up-regulate production of tumor necrosis factor-? and increase the risk for aggressive disease. We investigated whether a higher ratio of visceral to subcutaneous fat was associated with complicated (fistulating or stricturing) CD.
