Introduction Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) includes Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) and can be diagnosed in childhood and adolescence in 25% of cases [1]. Children that contract IBD before 10 years of age almost always present with extensive colitis that cannot be classified as either UC or CD, and remain colitis not determined (IBD-U) until several years later [2]. Data from the literature on the time of diagnosis vary considerably. A pediatric IBD study in Germany found that the average time for CD diagnosis was 5 months (2-10 months), for the UC was 3 months (1-6 months) and IBD-U was 4 months (2-11 months) and the growth deficit was the most common sign in cases with late diagnosis [3]. Compared to this study, the time interval between the onset of symptoms and the diagnosis was 4 and 2 months in a recent French study (EPIMAD) [4,5] and 4 months in Noroega [5], 10 and 6 months in Italy [6] re- spectively for CD and UC.

This study gathered in 2087 patients, of which 59% were diagnosed with CD, 32% with UC and 9% as IBD-U. The mean age at diagnosis was 12.1 years (0.6-17, 9 years), and 56% boys [7].
