Carcinogenesis in Ulcerative Colitis: Is Surveillance Worthwhile?
Observations that dysplastic epithelium predicts neoplastic
change in the coli tic bowel have led to the adoption of surveillance policies in
ulcerative colitis patients, usually involving colonoscopy irrespective of symptomatology.
Few satisfactory prospective studies of surveillance have been carried
out. The present data suggest that patients should be screened at 10 years and
investigated when symptomatic. Annual clinical review with five-yearly colonoscopic
examination may be more reasonable, lead to better compliance, detect
the occasional early cancer, and reduce the colonoscopic load
