Postpolypectomy surveillance recommendations are based on observational studies, often using advanced adenomas at follow-up as their primary outcome. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A new meta-analysis focused on the risk of incident cancer and related mortality reviewed 12 studies with 510,019 patients. Colorectal cancer incidence per 10,000 person-years was slightly higher in those with low-risk adenomas (1-2 adenomas <10 mm with tubular histology and only low-grade dysplasia) than no adenomas, with a statistically significant odds ratio (OR) of 1.26 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.06-1.5). For those with high-risk adenomas compared to those with no adenomas, the odds ratio for cancer was 2.92 (95% CI, 2.31-3.69). Cancer-related mortality in those with low-risk adenomas compared to no adenomas was not statistically significant (OR, 1.15; 95% CI, 0.76-1.74) but was higher in those with high-risk adenomas (OR, 2.69; 95% CI, 1.87-3.87). Both cancer incidence and mortality were also significantly higher in those with high-risk adenomas compared with low-risk adenomas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The authors argue that these data indicate that surveillance intervals in those with low-risk adenomas should be the same as those with no adenomas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
