Every doctor must maintain a strong knowledge of the fundamentals. A doctor's career will benefit from having a firm grasp of the principles of medicine. Simply comprehending the diagnosis merely constitutes half knowledge, and half knowledge might be extremely dangerous! In order for every doctor on Medflix to build their foundations and subsequently enhance their practices, we are bringing you the fundamentals of medicine, where we go over both the concepts taught in medical school and how they apply in modern practice.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal tract and includes both Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Given that the presentation of IBD is not specific, the differential diagnosis is broad and encompasses a wide spectrum of diseases, many of which can mimic and/or even coexist with IBD. Mycobacterium tuberculosis ('the great mimic') may coexist with IBD or mimic CD entirely. Accurate diagnosis of IBD and exclusion of these mimics are crucial for patient management. Renowned senior gastroenterologist Dr. Manish Bhatnagar helps us address these dilemmas in diagnosis with a few interesting cases and clinical scenarios!
