Irritable Bowel Syndrome in Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Boundaries Along a Continuum

SOCIETY: AGA IBS-like symptoms in patients with IBD are common, yet presenting a diagnostic and clinical challenge for patients and their providers. This session will review the prevalence of co-existing IBS and IBD, provide practical guidance for identifying and treating IBS-like symptoms in IBD, discuss pathophysiological mechanisms of persistent symptoms in quiescent IBD, and highlight critical knowledge gaps that present future opportunities for research in IBS-IBD overlap.
