Background/Objectives: This study aimed to determine the prevalence of malnutrition and sarcopenia risk among patients hospitalized in gastroenterology clinics across different geographical regions of Turkey, to identify their risk factors, and to evaluate their associations with clinical outcomes. Methods: A total of 1051 patients admitted to 36 gastroenterology clinics across six geographical regions of Turkey during the week of 14 November 2024 were evaluated in a cross-sectional design. The nutritional status of the patients was assessed using the NRS-2002 questionnaire, while the risk of sarcopenia was evaluated with the SARC-F questionnaire. Demographic data, clinical diagnoses, disease severity scores, and comorbidities were also recorded and analyzed. Results: Of the patients included in the study, 54.7% were female, and the mean age was 61.7 ± 17.2 years. The prevalence of malnutrition risk was 27.8%, while the prevalence of sarcopenia risk was 32.7%. Patients with malnutrition risk had a lower BMI (24.7 ± 5.3 vs. 27.1 ± 5.4, p < 0.001) and were older (67.6 ± 16.0 vs. 56.5 ± 17.1, p < 0.001). The risks of sarcopenia and malnutrition were significantly higher in patients with liver cirrhosis (40.7% malnutrition; 54.5% sarcopenia), gastrointestinal malignancy (50.5%; 44.2%), and diabetes mellitus. Logistic regression analysis identified older age, male sex, and presence of malignancy as independent risk factors for malnutrition, whereas older age, female sex, presence of malnutrition, liver cirrhosis, and heart failure were independent risk factors for sarcopenia. A strong correlation was also found between malnutrition and sarcopenia (r = 0.544, p < 0.001). Conclusions: Approximately one-third of patients hospitalized in gastroenterology clinics across Turkey are at risk of malnutrition and sarcopenia. These conditions are particularly associated with malignancy, cirrhosis, and metabolic comorbidities. Our findings highlight the necessity of systematic nutritional and sarcopenia screening upon hospital admission.

Perianal complications of Crohn’s disease are one of the significant reasons for abdominoperineal resection in patients with medically refractory perianal Crohn’s disease. A 35-year-old man with Crohn’s disease with colostomy presented to our clinic due to perianal fistulas. Complete stricture of the anus was observed, and the patient was found unsuitable for the stoma closure. The Turnbull–Cutait procedure was performed and he was discharged on the fifth postoperative day. In the second month after surgery, rectoscopy revealed a 2 cm long pouch on the neorectum. Then, the patient was treated with antibiotics and infliximab. Following the treatment, the symptoms of the patient were regressed. In the 10th postoperative month, a perianal abscess was seen, and the patient was treated with antibiotics. His ileostomy was reversed in the 18th postoperative month without any complications. In the 42nd postoperative month, no complications were reported. This case report presents the index perianal Crohn’s disease case successfully treated with the Turnbull–Cutait procedure.
