  • Description:
    The worldwide prevalence of Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), collectively known as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), has increased throughout the last several decades.1,2 Pediatric IBD (PIBD), a distinct clinical entity with a more extensive anatomic distribution and more aggressive natural history than adult IBD, has historically been considered a rare disease. The prevalence of PIBD in North America is high compared to other continents, yet nationally representative United States (U.S.) estimates are few3 with even fewer estimates of the racial and geographic distribution of disease.4 We recently defined the prevalence of physician-diagnosed IBD in the United States in a nationally representative population by pooling data from public and private health plans.5 In this report, we further describe the prevalence of PIBD and distribution across age, sex, region, and race.
