The cumulative surgery-free rate. The cumulative surgery-free rate of EBD cases after 1 year and 2 years from the initial EBD in the non-CD and CD groups was 92% (11/12) and 83% (10/12) and 82% (9/11) and 73% (8/11), respectively. There were no significant differences in the surgical-free rate between the non-CD and CD groups.
