Abstract
This review chronicles the evolution of dysplasia detection and management in inflammatory bowel disease since 1925, the year the first case report of colitis-related colorectal cancer was published. We conclude that colorectal cancer prevention and dysplasia management for patients with inflammatory bowel disease has changed since this first case report, from somewhat hopeless to hopeful.
