ABSTRACT: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) including Crohn (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), is intestinal disorders with an unknown specific etiology. Many factors are involved in the pathogenesis: genetic, environment, nutrition, immunity and intestinal dysbiosis. In the present work, we review the most important trigger mechanisms involved in IBD, with a particular regard to the role of microbiota and fecal mass transplantation as a new therapeutic approach, that even if it can be considered safe and effective, data are necessary regarding all procedures not yet standardized and timing of treatment.
