Summary

To assess the feasibility and effectiveness of a program in L-IBD patients using CE targeted biopsies

Detailed description

We aim to know the prevalence and incidence of dysplasia and colitis-associated colorectal cancer in patients with longstanding colonic inflammatory bowel disease (N-IBD), in Spain and the usefulness of advanced endoscopy (chromoendoscopy) for the diagnosis and endoscopic differential diagnosis of N-IBD.

Conditions

• Inflammatory Bowel Disease
• Colorectal Cancer

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	Chromoendoscopy	Chromoendoscopy involves the topical application of stains to improve tissue localization and characterization of lessions during endoscopy . Chromoendoscopy has been used in patients undergoing colonoscopy, including those undergoing surveillance for chronic ulcerative colitis. Using pit pattern classifications, chromoendoscopy has a high sensitivity and specificity for differentiating neoplastic from non-neoplastic lesions
