title: "That was me" a patient's perspective on flat lesion in inflammatory bowel disease.
abstract: This article advocates the use of chromoendoscopy to detect flat lesions over the use of colonoscopy alone. The authors illustrate their point by telling the story of their father, who died of colon cancer despite following the gold standard inflammatory bowel disease protocol.
