Crohn's disease is a non-specific inflammatory bowel disease, which is a chronic condition that affects the ileum and/or large intestine. At the same time, it can also involve any other part of the human body, that is, from the mouth to the anus. The symptoms are very bothersome and cause a significant reduction in quality of life and sometimes even crippling permanent damage to the gastrointestinal tract, which requires enteral or parenteral nutrition for life. The purpose of this study was to investigate tissue metalloproteinases as markers of recurrent Crohn's disease. The experimental groups included 31 patients and 10 patients with normal Crohn's disease, ranging in age from 23-70 years, with a mean age of 40.4. Collected tissues were frozen and then fragmented tissues were homogenized with Ripa Lysis buffer on ice. The supernatant was collared and four metalloproteinases - MMP 3, MMP 7, MMP 8 and MMP 9 - were an-alized by Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay using SEA101HU, SEA102Hu, SEA103Hu and SEA553Hu kits (Cloud-Clone Corp., Kata, TX, USA). All chemical analyses were performed in triplicate. Metalloproteinase content was expressed as mean ± standard deviation. Metalloproteinase 3 and metalloproteinase 8) significantly influenced the possibility of Crohn recurrence
