Popis: BACKGROUND/AIM We previously found crypts in symmetric fission (CSF) and in asymmetric fission (CAF) in colectomy-specimens with ulcerative colitis. We now analyzed CSF and CAF (CSAF) in biopsies from 80 patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) without dysplasia or carcinoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS One unselected double-biopsy from affected endoscopic areas was investigated in the 80 cases. RESULTS A total of 353 crypts in fission were found. The median number of CAF/biopsy was 3.7 and for CSF/biopsy, 0.7 (p
