Characteristics of the UC patients with dysplasia or cancer arisen after IRA.

Patient number	Age at IRA	Years from UC diagnosis at IRA	Dysplasia or cancer at colectomy	Regular endoscopic surveillance	Years from IRA to reoperation	Stage	Type of surgery at reoperation	Follow-up from reoperation
1	48	12	—	Yes	13	HGD	IPAA	Alive at 15 yrs
2	35	8	—	Yes	9	HGD	IPAA	Alive at 7 yrs
