Background: Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). Recently, new phenotypes of CRC in IBD have been suggested. Studies of the prognosis of CRC in IBD have shown conflicting results. The aim of the study was to analyze factors for prognosis in CRC-IBD, including the impact of the new phenotypes.
Methods: By using the nationwide, population-based Cancer Registry of Norway, we compared survival of a CRC-IBD cohort with CRC in the background population (all-CRC), adjusting for the topographical distribution of dysplasia at cancer diagnosis (widespread versus localized neoplasia in IBD) and other factors. We also analyzed prognostic factors within CRC-IBD.
Results: The mean age at CRC diagnosis was 43 years in widespread, 52 years in localized neoplasia IBD, and 70 years in all-CRC (P < 0.05). Adjusted for cofactors, prognosis of CRC-IBD was poorer compared to all-CRC (mortality rate ratio [MRR] 3.71, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.54-5.42, P < 0.001). Prognosis of widespread neoplasia IBD was poorer compared to all-CRC (MRR 4.27, 95% CI: 2.83-6.44, P < 0.001) and compared to localized neoplasia IBD (MRR 3.58, 95% CI: 0.87-14.72, P = 0.076). Survival was not significantly different between localized neoplasia IBD and all-CRC (P = 0.132).
Conclusions: The results demonstrate lower age and poorer survival of CRC in IBD compared to CRC in the background population. The unfavorable effect of IBD on prognosis of CRC was pronounced in widespread neoplasia IBD. The diagnosis of this phenotype seems to be an important prognostic sign in patients with CRC in IBD.

The worldwide incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC) is roughly two million new instances each year throughout the world, according to the World Health Organization 2022. CRC is the third most prevalent disease and the second most common cancer in terms of fatality. People diagnosed with colorectal cancer in the early stages have a five-year survival rate of roughly 95%, but people identified with the disease in the later stages have a survival rate of approximately 12%.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a multisystem condition that could affect the cutaneous systems, namely cutaneous extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs). It has been suggested that IBD is associated with erythema nodosum (EN), malignant melanoma (MM) and non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC). However, the potential causal relationship between IBD and the mentioned above cutaneous EIMs is still unclear.

Bioactive lipids have a multifaceted role in health and disease and are recognized to play an important part in gut immunity and disease conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease and colon cancer. Advancements in lipidomics, enabled by mass spectrometry and chromatographic techniques, have enhanced our understanding of lipid diversity and functionality. Bioactive lipids, including short-chain fatty acids, saturated fatty acids, omega-3 fatty acids, and sphingolipids, exhibit diverse effects on inflammation and immune regulation.

we report the case of a recurrent giant pseudopolyp occurring in a patient without a history of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), with an asymptomatic interval of nine years. Case Presentation: a 51-year-old Caucasian male with no relevant medical history was hospitalized for a subocclusive mass in the right colon, suspected to be neoplastic. He underwent a right hemicolectomy, and the histopathology revealed a giant pseudopolyp without malignancy.

Water-assisted colonoscopy (WAC) application in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) endoscopy offers significant technical opportunities. Traditional gas-aided insufflation colonoscopy increases patient discomfort, presenting challenges in the frequent and detailed mucosal assessments required for IBD endoscopy. WAC techniques, including water immersion and exchange, provide superior patient comfort and enhanced endoscopic visualisation.
