Abstract

Background: Surveillance colonoscopy in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) is advocated for early diagnosis of neoplasia but is imperfect because some patients develop cancer despite surveillance. We sought to determine if any endoscopic factors during Surveillance colonoscopy were associated with the diagnosis of colorectal dysplasia before the development of cancer.
