Objective: Implementation of faecal immunochemical tests (FIT) as a triage test in primary healthcare may improve the efficiency of referrals without missing cases of colorectal cancer (CRC). We aim to summarise the performance characteristics of FITs for CRC in symptomatic patients presenting to primary healthcare.
Design: We performed a systematic literature review of Medline and EMBASE databases from May 2018 to November 2020.
The aim of this study is to describe the treatment of pT1 colorectal cancer (CRC) in a mass screening program, the surgery-related complications and the factors associated with residual disease after endoscopic resection and extraluminal disease after surgery. We included in this retrospective analysis all the pT1 CRC detected in the Galician CRC screening program between May 2013 and June 2019. We determined which variables were independently associated with the outcomes of the study through a multivariable logistic regression analysis.
