Not common: The disease, a complication associated with inflammatory bowel disease is more frequent as a field effect which has developed in the bowel secondary to viral entry such as the polyoma virus. The normal cells begin to genetically transform and eventually result in carcinoma most prevalent in the 50's and 60's years of age. A select, small polypoid group can also transform to Ca.
