Abstract: The “Clover Sign†is radiological finding used to metaphorically describe imaging appearance of a complex fistula in Crohn disease. It refers to the presence of blossom-like arrangement of dilated bowel loops with internal fistula, resembling the clover leaves (Figure 1) [1,2]. CD is chronic, relapsing inflammatory disorder that may be seen in any segment of gastrointestinal tract but most frequently affects small and large intestine.
