Research Abstract |
In this longitudinal study, we assess the incidence of advanced neoplasia detected during follow-up colonoscopies in patients who were found to have diminutive (<5 mm) adenomatous polyps during initial screening colonoscopies but were not referred for removal. Advanced neoplasia was defined as low-grade dysplasia more than 10 mm, adenoma with a high-grade dysplasia component, or carcinoma. Advanced neoplasia was detected in 20 (2.8%; 95% CI 1.6 to 4.0) of 713 such patients during follow-up colonoscopies over a median interval of 61 months. Only one patient with advanced neoplasia needed surgical treatment, however, such lesions in remaining 19 patients were curatively treated by endoscopic resection. Risk of advanced neoplasia was not increased even when diminutive adenomatous polyps had been untreated at screening. Our non-referral strategy was considered to be acceptable, provided such patients undergo recommended follow-up colonoscopies.
