The mesentery in Crohn’s disease frequently displays disease manifestations, such as
mesenteric thickening and fat wrapping. Fibrocytes are a precursor cell type that can
differentiate into fibroblasts or adipocytes [1]. They have previously been identified in the
mesentery in inflammatory conditions such as mesenteric panniculitis [2]. This study aimed to
investigate the role of fibrocytes in Crohn’s mesenteric disease manifestations.
