Non-neoplastic findings in colon capsule endoscopy: Additional yield.

Despite the common occurrence of non-neoplastic findings (NNFs) in individuals with a positive fecal immunochemical test (FIT), few studies have reported on these findings. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to determine the prevalence of colonic NNFs in three cohorts of Danish clinical trial participants who underwent colon capsule endoscopy (CCE). Retrospectively collecting NNFs from CCE reports of three Danish trials, we classified them into five categories: diverticula, vascular abnormalities, inflammation, erosions/ulcerations, and others.
