Abstract

The present meta-analysis demonstrated an increased risk of small bowel, colon, extraintestinal cancers, and lymphoma in patients with Crohn's disease. Patients with extensive colonic disease that has been present from a young age should be candidates for endoscopic surveillance; however, further data are required to evaluate the risk of neoplasia over time.
