An urgent problem in the treatment of Crohn's disease in children is a loss of sensitivity or lack of response to prescribed anti-inflammatory therapy, which is manifested by a relapse or an increase in the degree of disease activity. This therapy includes glucocorticosteroids, immunosuppressants, salicylates, genetically engineered biological drugs, and enteral nutrition products. In this regard, new methods of treatment are being developed, one of which is the use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC). There is experience in the world on the use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in adult patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Clinical studies on the use of MSCs in children with IBD are in their infancy. The article describes a clinical case demonstrating the effectiveness of MSC administration in a patient with Crohn's disease. It demonstrates the short-term clinical efficacy of systemic administration of allogeneic MSCs in a patient with Crohn's disease as a combination treatment with standard therapy. The results of the study confirm that the use of MSCs with their powerful immunosuppressive, anti-inflammatory and regenerative potential can be one of the components of complex therapy for IBD in children.
