@MondayNightIBD 2/📣#IBD & meds carry an⬆️risk of #Malignancies, including lymphomas

🔺Who is at risk?
🔺Is it IBD-mediated or drug-related?
🔺What is our prevention & screening🔎strategy?

Thank you for joining this special #MondayNightIBD #Back2Basics @DuekerJeffrey Image
@MondayNightIBD @DuekerJeffrey @amelia_kellar @DCharabaty @IBD_Afzali @drdani23 @ibddoctor @EdithHoMD @fgomollon @IBD_DrEMF @ibdgijami @MaiaKayalMD 3/ 🔥IBD may carry a unique risk of primary intestinal lymphoma (PILD), but NO🔼risk of extra-intestinal NHL

In CESAME population,
▪️Crude IR of PILD was 0.12/1000 patient-years (py)
▪️All B-cell NH LD
▪️79% ♂️, 11 CD, 3 UC
▪️86% arose in IBD lesions
▪️45% were EBV positive Image

🔺⬆️Risk in CD, less evidence with UC
🔺M>F
🔺Risk increases with exposure⏲️, particularly >2 years
🔺Risk decrease after cessation of AZA Image

@MondayNightIBD @NavreetChowlaMD @MilestoneIBD @IBD_FloMD @tinahamd @DrCoreySiegel @HorstIBDDoc @MLongMD @LauraRaffalsMD @doc_ibd @IBDBen 2/ AZA trials in IBD:

🔹Corticosteroids needed to induce remission
🔹Takes ~12 wks for AZA/6MP to become effective, so taper steroids accordingly
🔹AZA/6-MP effective for maintenance of remission (mainly in UC); Not effective for induction ImageImage

@MondayNightIBD 1/ Hello and Welcome to today's #MondayNightIBD #Back2Basics!

Classifications are💎in IBD‼️Why⁉️:
🔹Clear assessment of disease location/extent/behavior
🔹Objective measure of flare severity
🔹Objective measure of endoscopic activity
➡️Determine treatment and prognosis‼️ Image
@MondayNightIBD @MN_GIMD @JosephHabibi_MD @DCharabaty @RomyChamoun @AllonKahn @drsusankais 2/ Classifications in CD:
1⃣Montreal Classification🟰Clinical Classification:
🔹A=Age at dx, L=Location in GI tract, B=Behavior (cf. Slide)
⚠️Behavior pearls:
🔻B1 can progress into B2 or B3
🔻Pts can present with B2 or B3 or both
🔻Perianal disease possible with any B phenotype Image

#CDI in #IBD compared to general 👩👨‍🦱

⬆️⬆️ common (5-8x 🔺)
⬆️ community-acquired
⬆️ w/o antibiotic 💊 exposure
⬆️ colonization
⬆️⬆️ recurrence ☹️
⬆️ colectomy risk 🔪

🚨 often no pseudomembranes on 🔦
🚨 can happen post-colectomy 🔪 in #smallbowel or #IPAA
