    • Provided herein is a method of diagnosing a clinical subtype of Crohn's disease (CD) by determining whether perinuclear anti-neutrophil antibody (pANCA) is present in a patient with CD, where the presence of pANC A indicates a clinical subtype of CD with features of ulcerative colitis (UC). The present also provides a method of diagnosing clinical subtypes of Crohn's disease in a patient with CD by determing whether pANCA or speckling anti-pan polymorphonuclear antibo dy (SAPPA) is present in the patient with CD, where the presence of pANCA indicates a clinical subtype of CD with features of ulcerative colitis and where the presence of SAPPA indicates a clinical subtype of CD having perforating, fistulizing or small bowel obstructive disease. The invention further provides a method of diagnosing clinical subtypes of Crohn's disease in a patient with CD by determining the presence or absence of ANCA, pANCA and SAPPA in the patient with CD and determining the presence or absence of anti - Saccharomyces cerevisiae antibodies (ASCA) in the patient with CD, where the presnece of pANCA combined with the absence of ASCA indicate a clinical subtype of CD with features of UC, the presence of SAPPA indicates a clinical subtype of CD having perforating or fistulizing disease or small bowel obstructive disease, and the presence of ASCA combined with the absence of ANCA indicates a clincial subtype of CD lacking features of ulcerative colitis and having perforating or fistulizing disease or small bowel obstructive disease. Kits for diagnosing clinical subtypes of Crohn's disease, which contain neutrophil and antigen specific for ASCA, also are provided.
