Extraintestinal symptoms, particularly arthritis, may occur. Long-term risk of colon cancer is elevated compared to unaffected people. Diagnosis is by colonoscopy. Treatment is with 5-aminosalicylic acid, corticosteroids, immunomodulators, biologics, antibiotics, and occasionally surgery. #ulcerativecolitis #crohnsdisease #diarrhea Professor Armen Astvatsatryan, MD, PhD, ScD, FESC.
