IBD Symptomatology
Crohns Disease
• Altered bowel movements
– Increased stool frequency
– Decreased stool
consistency
• Abdominal pain
– RLQ exacerbated by eating
– May be associated with
bloating
• Bleeding not common
– Large volume bleed rarely
Ulcerative Colitis
• Altered bowel movements
– Increased stool frequency
– Decreased stool consistency
– Proctitis: possible
constipation
• Abdominal pain
– LLQ cramps before BM,
relieved by defecation
– Tenesmus
• Blood in stool
17
Historical Points Suggestive of IBD
• Specific questions may differentiate purulent exudate
from mucus
– Presence of blood with pus suggests IBD
• Presence of blood in stool favors UC over CD
– More pronounced bleeding, UC more likely
• Careful scrutiny for systemic sx, extraintestinal sx
important
• Specifically ask about prior history of peri-anal abscess,
fistulas, fissures
18
Historical Points Suggestive of IBD
• Alternating diarrhea and constipation more
strongly suggest IBS vs IBD
• Nocturnal diarrhea more common in IBD
• Functional symptoms remaining after bout of
enteric infection may confuse the clinical picture
– Lingering abdominal pain, loose/urgent stools
should prompt objective evaluation by endo/path
19
IBD or IBS – How to use the ROS
• Anemia, abnormal LFTs, elevated WBC, CRP
• Extra-intestinal manifestations
– Arthropathy-both axial and peripheral
– Skin rashes
• E. nodosum
• Pyoderma gangrenosum
– Eye symptoms
• Uveitis
• Conjunctivits/episcleritis
– Oral ulcerations
• Ano-rectal complaints
20
Systemic Complications and
Malnutrition, growth failure
Colon Cancer

Components of IBD Diagnosis
• Clinical picture
• Endoscopic information/pathologic specimens
• Radiographic evidence
• Chronic course of symptoms
– Important to fully evaluate cause of diarrhea
26
Useful Laboratory Tests
• Blood work
– CBC, TSH, ESR, CRP
• Serologic markers
– Anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae Antibody (ASCA), Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (pANCA), anti-OmpC, antiCBir1
• Fecal calprotectin and lactoferrin
– Elevated in inflammation, no increased in IBS

C. diff in IBD has worse outcomes
Nationwide population based retrospective study
based on hospital discharge diagnosis (2003)
Primary outcome: in-hospital mortality
CDI-IBD 2,804, CDI 44,400, IBD 77, 366
Compared to non-IBD CDI, CDI-IBD had:
2x greater mortality
6x more likely to undergo surgery
3x longer length of stay
2x more likely to require blood transfusion

32
Indications for Endoscopy in IBD
• Obtain an accurate diagnosis
• Assess disease activity or possible extension
• Dilate strictures in fibro-stenotic disease
• Detect cancer precursors in long-standing colonic
disease
34
Endoscopic Features of IBD
Ulcerative colitis
• Edema
• Erythema/Loss of vascularity
• Friability
• Erosions
• Mucopurulent exudate
• Spontaneous bleeding
• Ulceration
35
Endoscopic Features of IBD
Crohn’s Disease
• Patchy edema, erythema
– Discontinuous
• Apthous ulcerations
• Coalescing ulcerations
• Cobblestoning
• Longitudinal “bear claw”
ulcers
36
IBD Treatment Principles
Determine underlying cause/location
of disease
Tailor therapy to patient’s manifestations
Achieve and maintain remission
Monitor for toxicity/complications
37
First-line Treatment of IBD
Role of 5-ASA
Topical Therapy
• Rectal administration
– Mesalamine enema
4gm/60ml
– Mesalamine
1mg/suppository
• Preferred therapy for
proctitis
• Synergy obtained by
combining with oral
therapy
Oral Therapy
• Standard formulation
–
–
–
–
–
Asacol
Pentasa
Dipentum
Sulfasalazine
Colazal
• Delayed release
formulations
– Apriso
– Lialda
• Efficacy of 5-ASA use supported by significant body of
evidence in UC, not in Crohn’s disease
38
Site of Delivery
Based on 5-ASA Formulation
• Topical therapy’s ability to reduce inflammation
directly linked to ability to reach site of inflammation
20% pancolitis
30-40% beyond sigmoid
Enema
Oral
40-50% rectosigmoid
Suppository
39
Second-line Treatment of UC, First Line CD:
Role of Steroids
• Budesonide (Enterocort EC®)
–
–
–
–
FIRST-line therapy for ileo-colonic Crohn’s disease
9mg daily for 8 weeks
No true maintenance benefit
Fewer side effects than prednisone
• Prednisone
– 40-60mg daily for 1-2 weeks or until response
– Taper over 5 mg a week until 20 mg a day then 2.5-5
mg a week taper
– Consider initiating steroid-sparing therapy
(immunomodulators and/or anti-TNF therapy) if
severe disease or two flares in a year
40
Serious Potential Adverse Effects From
Prolonged Corticosteroid Therapy

Infection
Hypertension
Diabetes

Lichtenstein GR et al. ACG 2008;Abstract 14
Sandborn WJ. Can J Gastroenterol. 2000;14(suppl C):17C-22C
Use of corticosteroids
in IBD should always
have an effective exit
strategy.
41
Managing Steroid Risk
• Crohn’s patients – consider baseline DEXA
– Ca++ absorption may impaired by inflammation1,2
• Supplement with Ca/Vit D while taking steroids
– Stable Crohn’s only needs standard therapy2,3
• Check Vit D levels, replace as necessary
• Assess BMD q 1-2 years for steroid exposed

3. Siffledeen JS, et al. Clin Gastro Hep 2005:3(2):122-32
42
Second Line Therapy CD/UC:
Immunomodulators
AZA (Azathioprine), 6-MP (Mercaptopurine), MTX (Methotrexate)
• Commonly used when patients initiate prednisone
– Steroid sparing agent for long-term management
• Long-term risks
– Bone marrow suppression (Aza/6mp Interaction with
allopurinol)
– Infection
– Lymphoma
– Hepatotoxicity
• Need routine testing for safety
43
What are the main side-effects
of 6MP/Azathioprine?
44
Second Line Therapy CD/UC:
Anti-TNF Therapy
• Monoclonal antibody against Tumor Necrosis
Factor (TNF)-α
• Transformative therapy for induction and
maintenance of remission
• Three currently forms approved for marketing:
– Infliximab (Remicade®)
– Adalimumab (Humira®)
– Certolizumab pegol (Cimzia®)
45
Defining Primary and Secondary Failure
• Primary Failure: an IBD pt that never responded to
the biologic.
• Secondary Failure: an IBD pt who initially responds
to the biologic but loses response over time.

Adverse Events Associated with
Anti-TNF Treatment
51
Placental transfer of anti-TNF agents in IBD
31 pregnant women with IBD receiving infliximab (n = 11),
adalimumab (n = 10), or certolizumab (n = 10). Serum concentrations
of the drugs were measured at birth in the mother, infant / cord blood
Concentrations of IFX and ADA, but not CZP, were higher in infants
at birth and their cords than in their mothers.
Cord blood/
maternal
ratio
160%
153%
3.9%
IFX and ADA could be detected in the infants up to 6 months.
Mahadevan U, et al. Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol 2013;11:286-92.
Enhancing Safety of IBD Treatment
• Although some IBD treatments increase risk of
complications, some risks can be mitigated
• Close monitoring for infections, rapid treatment
• Regular monitoring of lab studies (CBC, CMP)
• Thiopurine metabolites (6-TGN and 6-MMP)
• Preventative measures
53
Preventative Measures for
IBD Patients on Immunotherapy
• Annual PAP smear
• Skin cancer screening
– No tanning bed
– Minimize sun exposure
• Consider PCP prophylaxis with triple therapy
– TMP/SMX three times weekly
– Dapsone if sulfa allergic
1. Lichtenstein GR et al. Gastroenterology 2006;130(3):935-9
54
Immunization of IBD Patients
• Consider immunizations early
– Before steroids, AZA, anti-TNF
– Unable to use live vaccinations
– Other vaccines have reduced titers
• Definition of immunosuppressed state
– Steroid treatment 20mg/d > 2 weeks, or within 3
months of stopping
– Active AZA/6-MP, MTX, Anti-TNF agents or
within 3 months of stopping
– Significant protein/calorie malnutrition

32 yo woman with pan UC x 13 years treated
with mesalamines only except for 4 short
coursed of steroids for flares. She was
referred to the IBD Clinic further evaluation of
UC and biopsies of a sigmoid colon mass
with low grade dysplasia.
Path: “At least high grade dysplasia arising in a background of
inflammation.”
Resection: Well differentiated mucinous adenocarcinoma.
How Many Biopsies are
Enough?
• Less than 1% total colonic surface area sampled!
• To exclude highest grade of dysplasia with1
– 95% confidence – need 64 biopsies
– 90% confidence – need 33 biopsies
• Minimum of 32-40 biopsies recommended2,3,4
• 4 biopsies every 10 cm
• Patients must understand the limitations of
surveillance and accept the possibility that
dysplasia or cancer can still arise

Colorectal Cancer Risk Reduction
• Initial screening colonoscopy after 8 years of UC
or Crohn’s colitis1
– Four biopsies every 10cm
• Repeat colonoscopy every 2-3 years, presence
of dysplasia suggests need for colectomy
• Annual colonoscopy at diagnosis for colonic IBD
plus primary sclerosing cholangitis
• Additional risk factors:
– Early age of onset,
– Family history of CRC
– Severe microscopic inflammation

• Once daily 5-ASA may increase adherence1
• Benefits of adherence2
– Reduction in flares
– Avoid steroids
• TREAT registry double risk of death with steroids
• Multiple courses, low dose not effective regimen
• Chronic 5-ASA confers chemopreventative effect3
• Reduce risk of CRC/dysplasia with 5-ASA use in UC

Summary IBD
• Understanding the diagnosis is important for
effective management.
• Beware of disease mimickers and look for
infections
• Remission should be achieved successfully
before a transition to maintenance
• Steroids: effective short-term but use should be
minimized by steroid-sparing agents
• 5-ASA therapy should be dosed and delivered to
the area of disease
69
Summary IBD
• Colonoscopic surveillance at 8 years of disease
and annually in IBD + PSC
• Appropriate vaccinations
• Patient education is important:
Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation of America
• Encourage adherence to effective therapies for
IBD patients.
– Once daily dosing with mesalamine
– Patient education regarding benefits
