Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Patients who agree to participate and agree to give their written consent.

2. Patients older than 18 years and younger than 75 years

3. With Crohn's disease diagnosed at least 6 months before that meet clinical, endoscopic, histological and/or radiological criteria.

4. Presence of a single inflammatory stenotic lesion in the small intestine or ileocolic area with a maximum length of 5 cm, demonstrated by magnetic resonance enterography, which produces episodes of intestinal occlusion/subocclusion. Other inflammatory lesions are admittedly present, but only one should be identified as the obvious cause of the occlusion/subocclusion.

5. Patients treated with at least one biological drug and with inadequate response to maintenance doses and before intensification (either dose, interval or change/addition of another drug):

1. antiTNF (for at least 14 week, include induction and/or maintenance doses):

Infliximab, Adalimumab, Certolizumab.

2. Anti-integrin (for at least 14 week, include induction and/or maintenance doses):

Vedolizumab

3. Anti-IL-12/23 (for at least 16 week, include induction and/or maintenance doses):

Ustekinumab

6. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test at screening and agree to use effective contraceptive measures for the duration of their participation in the study*

• a woman is considered to be of childbearing potential (WOCBP), that is, fertile, after menarche and until she becomes postmenopausal, unless she is permanently infertile. Permanent sterilization methods include hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, and bilateral oophorectomy.

Highly effective methods are considered: combined hormonal contraception (containing estrogens and progestogens) associated with ovulation inhibition (oral, intravaginal, transdermal), progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with ovulation inhibition (oral, injectable, implantable ), intrauterine device (IUD), intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS), bilateral tubal occlusion, vasectomized partner, sexual abstinence

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Intra-abdominal abscesses larger than 3 cm not drained (surgically, by interventional radiology) or not treated with antibiotics. Patients may be included once the abscess has been drained (without the need to wait) or if they have received antibiotic treatment, once improvement has been confirmed with imaging tests.

2. Several intestinal obstruction that requires urgent surgery

3. Active outbreak of Crohn's disease requiring medical treatment, defined as abdominal pain, fever, bloody diarrhea and CRP greater than 10. The patient may be included once the condition has resolved, when the patient is on maintenance medication.

4. History of previous invasive neoplasia in the last 5 years. Patients with completely resected basal cell carcinoma of the skin may be included

5. History in the last 6 month of several, progressive or uncontrolled hepatic, hematological, gastrointestinal, renal, endocrine, pulmonary, cardiac, neurological or psychiatric disease

6. Patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis

7. Patients with known congenital or acquired immunodeficiency, including HIV

8. Known allergy or hypersensibility to penicillin or aminoglycosides; DMEN (dulbecco modified eagle´s medium), bovine serum, local anesthesic or gadolinium

9. Contraindication to perform MRI (pacemaker, hip replacement or severe claustrophobia).

10. Patients unwilling or unable to comply with study procedures.

11. Patients who are receiving or have received any investigational drug in the 3 months prior to the screening period

12. Major surgery or severe trauma in the previous 6 months.

13. Pregnant or lactating women.

14. Patients who have a contraindication for general anesthesia.
