Objectives: The detection rate of proximal sessile serrated lesion (PSSLDR) is linked to the incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer. However, research on second forward view (SFV) examinations for PSSLDR remains limited. This first randomized controlled trial assessed the impact of the proximal SFV on the PSSLDR.

Colorectal Neoplasia Detection Rates in Lynch Syndrome.

Cancers (Basel)

November 2024

Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA.

Background: The expected and optimal adenoma detection rate (ADR) is not well characterized in Lynch syndrome (LS). The aim of this study is to determine the ADR, the overall colorectal neoplasia detection rate (CNDR), proximal serrated detection rate (PSDR), and CRC detection rate (CRCDR) in an LS cohort.

Methods: A retrospective study was performed of individuals with LS who were evaluated at a single tertiary care center from May 2001 to September 2023 ( = 542).

Article Synopsis
  • - Colonoscopy is the most commonly used screening test for colorectal cancer in the U.S., with high sensitivity for detecting precancerous lesions, allowing screenings every 10 years, and possibly every 15 years for those with normal results.
  • - There is substantial evidence showing colonoscopy reduces colorectal cancer incidence and mortality, supported by various studies, including comparisons with other screening methods like flexible sigmoidoscopy.
  • - Advances in colonoscopy techniques, such as improved mucosal exposure methods and non-device strategies, have enhanced detection rates of precancerous lesions, along with safer resection techniques for small lesions, increasing the effectiveness of this screening option.

Among colorectal serrated polyps (SPs), sessile serrated lesions (SSLs) and hyperplastic polyps (HPs) have a similar endoscopic appearance. However, the endoscopic distinctions between those two categories, microvesicular HPs (MVHPs) and goblet cell-rich HPs (GCHPs), are not well understood. Therefore, we compared the endoscopic features of SSLs, MVHPs, and GCHPs.

Germline Variants in DNA Interstrand-Cross Link Repair Genes May Contribute to Increased Susceptibility for Serrated Polyposis Syndrome.

Serrated polyposis syndrome (SPS) is characterized by the development of multiple colorectal serrated polyps and increased predisposition to colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the molecular basis of SPS, especially in cases presenting family history of SPS and/or polyps and/or CRC in first-degree relatives (SPS-FHP/CRC), is still poorly understood. In a previous study, we proposed the existence of two molecular entities amongst SPS-FHP/CRC families, proximal/whole-colon and distal SPS-FHP/CRC, according to the preferential location of lesions and somatic events involved in tumor initiation.
