Data supporting an increased risk of colorectal cancer in patients with Crohn's colitis are inconsistent. Despite this, clinical recommendations regarding colonoscopic screening and surveillance for patients with Crohn's colitis are extrapolated from chronic ulcerative colitis protocols. The primary aim of our study was to determine the incidence of dysplasia and carcinoma in pathology specimens of patients undergoing segmental or total colectomy for Crohn's disease of the large bowel. In addition, we sought to identify risk factors associated with the development of dysplasia and carcinoma.
