The etiology of Extraintestinal Manifestations in IBD?

What's the mechanism behind the development of sacroilitis, ankylosing spondylitis etc in Crohn's disease? Is it a hypersensitivity reaction? due to antibody/immune complex mediated damage of the joint? Is p-ANCA or any other antibody responsible for all these extraintestinal manifestations?
Help please. :plz:
