No doubt books exist, but this is not settled research by any means, so I'd start with recent journal articles instead. I'd be interested in what you can find by searching at pubmed.com. Meanwhile, here's an interesting start: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26029209 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26029209 This suggests that inflammation isn't an artifact - but compensatory.

Note the causal arrow might go both ways, with fistulas causing inflammation www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17109067 as well as inflammation causing fistulas. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4428674/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4428674/ Mast cell responses can weaken collagen. MCAS is a possiblility.
