The cause of IBD remains unknown, despite the identified genetic and environmental components to its aetiology.  While there is no cure, the GP is in an important position and can help the patient achieve more time in remission, with greater quality of life.  This article was written by Professor Richard Gearry, Department of Medicine, University of Otago; Department of Gastroenterology, Christchurch Hospital; and Gastroenterology and Endoscopy Specialists, Christchurch; and Professor Andrew Day, Department of Paediatrics, University of Otago and Christchurch Hospital.
