IBS stands for irritable bowel syndrome and it's a syndrome because when you look at the organs they can't find anything that's wrong with it. 80% of patients with Crohn's disease have some kind of infection or some kind of inflammation in the bottom of their small intestine, which is an IBS within the IBD.
