Abstract:
The risks of tumors in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are significantly higher than that in normal people. It is still obscure whether anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) agents increase the risks of malignant tumors in these patients and whether the patients with previous history of malignant tumors could use anti-TNF agents. It becomes an important issue for making clinical decisions.
