Cancer Risk in Pediatric-Onset Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Abstract: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic, immune-mediated, non-curable disease. The incidence of IBD appears to have risen over the last few decades especially in the pediatric age group. IBD usually presents with gastrointestinal symptoms, including abdominal pain, diarrhea, and bleeding per rectum but can also be associated with systemic symptoms such as weight loss, fatigue, joint and skin problems, and psychological comorbidities. One major complication is gastrointestinal and extra-intestinal maligna… Show more

“…The causal relationships between inflammation and cancer are now widely recognized and discussed. Experimental or epidemiological reports have documented that individuals with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), for instance ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), are more likely to develop colorectal cancer (CRC) than the general population 1–3 . According to the large meta‐analysis in 2001 by Eaden et al., the risk of cancer progression in patients with IBD is time dependent, which may escalate 2% by 10 years, 8% by 20 years and up to 18% by 30 years 4 .…”

“…Colonic preservation should be considered in this population as many patients with Crohn disease or ulcerative colitis do not progress to colectomy . 12 The use of biologic agents to medically treat IBD has been found to reduce the number of patients requiring colectomies. 13 In the future, clinicians may want to consider evaluation of the rectal function and defecation prior to ileostomy take down given the risk for peristalsis following a bacterial infection and operation.…”

“…Thus, it can be challenging to predict which patients will have progression of disease and require colectomy based on phenotypic description at presentation alone. Predictors that identify which treatments will be effective for which patients are critically needed so that patients can achieve rapid and sustained improvement in symptoms and quality of life ( 18 ), normalize growth and development ( 6 ), reduce cumulative exposure to corticosteroids and their associated toxicities, and avoid disease complications including toxic megacolon and colitis-associated colorectal cancer later in life ( 19 , 20 ). Moreover, we wish to consistently use the safest treatment approach that will achieve this goal for any individual patient.…”
