Objectives: This study was conducted to investigate the influence of irritable bowel syndrome to the results of fecal occult blood test. Methods: In a hospital-based case-control study, occult blood test with a 2-days method was performed on the patients with irritable bowel syndrome and the healthy subjects to evaluate the positivity rate of occult blood test. In a screening-program-based cross sectional study, the subjects who underwent occult blood screening with a 2-day method were divided into two groups, according to the results of questionnaire on irritable bowel syndrome, and the positivity rate of occult blood test as well as the predictive value for colorectal cancer were determined in these two groups. Results: Among 206 cases including 103 irritable bowel syndrome and 103 healthy subjects, the test was positive in 9 irritable bowel syndrome and 6 healthy subjects. The positivity rate to irritable bowel syndrome and healthy subjects was calculated to be 8.7% and 5.8%, respectively. There was no significant difference in the positivity rate between these two groups. Among 24157 subjects, who underwent occult blood screening, 1348 subjects were positive to irritable bowel syndrome, and 22809 subjects were negative. The positivity rate of occult blood test was 6.8% for irritable bowel syndrome and 6.2% for non-irritable bowel syndrome, and the predictive value for colorectal cancer was 3.3 and 3.0, indicating no substantial difference between these two groups. Conclusions: These results suggest that irritable bowel syndrome has no influence to the results of fecal occult blood test.
