Brief Summary

We collected NBI-ME images of PPs from 67 UC patients. The patients were divided into two groups on the basis of villi index: low (L)- and high (H)-types. The time to clinical recurrence was significantly shorter in remissive UC patients with H-type PPs than in those with L-type PPs. Multivariate analysis revealed that the existence of H-type PPs was an independent risk factor for clinical recurrence.
