Crohns disease is a disease belonging to a much larger group of inflammatory bowel diseases called irritable bowel disease. Crohns is named after an American gastroenterologist, Dr. Burrill B. Crohn. The disease was initially known as a medical entity when it was referred to by Doctors Crohn, Ginzburg, and Gordon D. Oppenheimer in 1932. The first recorded description of this condition prior to Crohns studies were made by an Italian physician Giovanni Battista Morgagni in 1769, when he diagnosed a young man with a chronic, debilitating painful illness and uncontrolled diarrhea.
