UPMC Inflammatory Bowel Disease Center
The Inflammatory
Bowel Disease (IBD) Center at UPMC treats people with ulcerative
colitis and Crohn’s disease. The center also helps patients
manage complications of these diseases, such as skin and eye disorders,
osteoporosis, biliary manifestations, and growth factors as well
as other GI conditions, like celiac disease.
While there
is no cure for IBD, there are exciting new treatment options. The
IBD Center offers the latest immunologic therapies that may have
greater success and fewer troubling side effects than traditional
steroid therapy. Patients benefit from the research advancements
made by the IBD Center physicians, who are some of the world’s
leading IBD genetics and immunology researchers.
