Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on understanding the recurrence rate of colorectal polyps in average-risk individuals, emphasizing the importance of colorectal cancer (CRC) in the Middle East and the role of benign adenomas in its development.
- A total of 237 patients were enrolled, with 102 completing a 3-year follow-up, revealing that a significant percentage developed adenomatous polyps, particularly those with a more complex morphology having a higher chance of recurrence.
- The findings suggest the need for enhanced colonoscopy screening in areas previously deemed low-risk for CRC and recommend more frequent surveillance for patients showing dysplasia.
