Table 2.

Standardized incidence ratios of category-specific cancers in (A) 377 patients with CD and (B) 462 patients with UC, compared with expected numbers in a SEER-based age- and sex-matched general population, in Olmsted County, Minnesota, 1940–2011. Cancers were classified into 7 categories based on the primary site involved – intestinal cancer (including CRC, small intestinal, biliary tract, hepatocellular, gallbladder, pancreatic, gastric, esophageal and anal cancer), tobacco-related cancers (lung, head and neck including oral, bladder, kidney, and ureter), female reproductive organ cancers (ovarian, endometrial, cervical, vaginal/vulvar and breast), male reproductive organ cancers (testicular and prostate cancer), miscellaneous extra-intestinal cancers (prostate, brain, spinal cord, thyroid, melanoma), hematological cancers (Hodgkin’s lymphoma, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, acute and chronic leukemia, multiple myeloma) and melanoma. Please note, figures in bold represent statistically significant results.
