BACKGROUND & AIMSScreening for precancerous lesions by colonoscopic surveillance in patients with longstanding inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been a standard practice. However, failure of detecting precursors and preventing colorectal carcinoma (CRC) development is still common. This study aims to assess whether some lesions shown in the surveillance biopsies eluded our attention due to atypical histopathology.
