Question

a person with inflammatory bowel disease can be at risk for: a bowel obstruction. b ulcers. c fistulas. d malnutrition. e all of these are correct.

Explanation:

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD, which includes conditions like Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis) can lead to multiple complications. Bowel obstruction can occur due to inflammation and scarring. Ulcers are common in the inflamed intestinal lining. Fistulas (abnormal connections between organs or tissues) can form, especially in Crohn’s disease. Malnutrition can result from poor absorption of nutrients due to intestinal inflammation and damage. So all the options (A - D) are complications of IBD, making E the correct choice.

Answer:

E. All of these are correct
