Similar was found for malignancy of GI tract, negative in 92, 4% patients with UC and 88, 3% patients with CD while positive was found in 9, 1% patients (P=0, 01, Fisher's exact test). There was greater percent of psoriasis (26, 5%), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) (14, 3%), Bechterew's disease (15, 3%), rheumatoid arthritis (RA) (12, 2%) and asthma (13, 3%) in family anamnesis of patients with UC unlike patients with CD (0%).
