Abstract
The incidence of UC in our area is one of the highest in Spain. Although this incidence is lower than that from 1994 to 1998, this decrease is not significant. The number of CD cases has not increased. Both diseases affect men and women equally. CD is diagnosed in earlier ages than UC. Exclusion of immigrants from the study increases these rates but not significantly.
