pubmed:abstractText |
Ulcerative colitis (UC) and increasing age are associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis. Screening of postmenopausal women and men older than 50 years with ulcerative colitis for osteoporosis is recommended. The prevalence of osteoporosis in restorative proctocolectomy (RPC) patients more than 50 years old is not known.
