A single-centre analysis of post-colonoscopy colorectal cancer.

Patients And Methods: A prospective registration of patients with colorectal cancer and a colonoscopy within the last 10 years. We tried to classify these post-colonoscopy colorectal cancers (PCCRCs) by most reasonable explanation and into subcategories suggested by the World Endoscopy Organization (WEO) and calculated the unadjusted PCCRC rate.

Results: 47 PCCRCs were identified.

Primary sclerosing cholangitis complicated by amyloid A amyloidosis: complete regression of the nephrotic syndrome by liver transplantation.

Secondary amyloidosis may complicate chronic inflammatory conditions and mostly presents as a renal disease with nephrotic syndrome or renal insufficiency. Its prognosis is largely affected by control of the underlying disease. We report a patient with primary sclerosing cholangitis, who developed cirrhosis over a 4-year period.
