Crohn’s disease mimicking colon cancer. Reformatted coronal (a) and axial (b) unenhanced CT scans and axial contrast-enhanced CT scan (c) show spiculated irregular wall thickening of the caecal wall (arrow in ac) with heterogeneous contrast enhancement (c). Also note proliferation of the pericaecal fat (asterisk), a common finding in Crohn’s disease.
