· Ongoing efforts are needed to enable a standardized assessment of UGI CD in the future.

We experienced a case with chief complaints of abdominal pain and diarrhea in a 12-year-old boy, who was diagnosed as Crohn disease with a result of radiologic, endoscopic, pathologic findings, and therapeutic diagnosis with antituberculous medications.
