Abstract
Cystic fibrosis is a multisystem disorder, and gastrointestinal (GI) disease contributes significantly to its morbidity. This review outlines the major gastrointestinal manifestations of CF, and highlights areas of common misunderstanding. Areas particularly important to practice, such as impact upon malabsorption, bowel obstruction and gastro-oesophageal reflux are considered in detail. The impact of new CFTR modulator therapies on CF-related GI conditions is discussed and treatment options for individual pathologies is discussed.
