Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Appropriate colonoscopy withdrawal times for individual colonic segments are not well known. The relationship between withdrawal time and adenoma detection rate (ADR)/polyp detection rate (PDR) in individual colonic segments was examined in this study. METHODS This was a prospective observational study involving 724 patients who underwent colonoscopy screening or surveillance colonoscopy from October 2015 to February 2017 at 10 university hospitals. RESULTS In the right side of the colon, the ADR (33.2% vs 13.7%, P < .001), PDR, serrated polyp detection rate, and number of adenomas per colonoscopy (APC) were significantly higher when the colonoscopy withdrawal time was ≥2 minutes compared with <2 minutes. When the withdrawal time was ≥4 minutes in the proximal colon and ≥3 minutes in the left segment of the colon, the ADR, PDR, and APC were significantly higher compared with withdrawal times of <4 minutes and <3 minutes, respectively. Multivariate analyses showed that the ADR was significantly associated with withdrawal times of ≥2 minutes in the right side of the colon (odds ratio [OR], 2.98; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.72-5.15; P < .001), ≥4 minutes in the proximal colon (OR, 4.48; 95% CI, 3.15-6.36; P < .001), and ≥3 minutes in the left segment of the colon (OR, 2.92; 95% CI, 1.74-4.91; P < .001). CONCLUSIONS The PDR and ADR appeared to be significantly increased when the withdrawal time was ≥2 minutes in the right-sided colon segment, ≥4 minutes in the proximal colon, and ≥3 minutes in the left-sided colon segment compared with shorter withdrawal times.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients are at an increased risk of developing colorectal cancer (CRC), which is thought to develop via the adenoma-carcinoma pathway. Since the discovery of the serrated carcinogenesis pathway and serrated polyposis syndrome (SPS), the incidence of carcinomas arising from serrated lesions in IBD patients has increased. We report three cases of long-standing IBD patients with associated serrated polyposis syndrome. At present, the pathophysiology of serrated lesions in IBD patients is not fully understood and there is a lack of strong evidence to confirm whether the manifestation of both conditions represents an increased risk of developing cancer. Therefore, more accurate surveillance guidelines are needed and are being actively investigated at present.

Abstract
Background/Aims Serrated polyposis syndrome (SPS) has been shown to increase the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). However, little is known about the characteristics of Asian patients with SPS. This study aimed to identify the clinicopathological features and risk of CRC in Korean patients with SPS as well as the differences between Korean and Western patients based on a literature review. Methods This retrospective study included 30 patients with SPS as defined by World Health Organization classification treated at Samsung Medical Center, Korea, between March 1999 and May 2011. Results Twenty patients (67%) were male. The median patient age at diagnosis was 56 years (range, 39–76 years). A total of 702 polyps were identified during a median follow-up of 43 months (range, 0–149 months). Serrated polyps were noted more frequently in the distal colon (298/702, 55%). However, large serrated polyps and serrated adenomas were mainly distributed throughout the proximal colon (75% vs. 25% and 81% vs. 19%, respectively); 73.3% had synchronous adenomatous polyps. The incidence of CRC was 10% (3/30 patients), but no interval CRC was detected. A total of 87% of the patients underwent esophagogastroduodenoscopy and 19.2% had significant lesions. Conclusions The phenotype of SPS in Korean patients is different from that of Western patients. In Korean patients, SPS is more common in men, there were fewer total numbers of serrated adenoma/polyps, and the incidence of CRC was lower than that in Western patients. Korean patients tend to more frequently have abnormal gastric lesions. However, the prevalence of synchronous adenomatous polyps is high in both Western and Korean patients.

Risk of Metachronous Advanced Neoplastic Lesions in Patients with Sporadic Sessile Serrated Adenomas Undergoing Colonoscopic Surveillance. Am J Gastroenterol 2016; 111:871-8. [PMID: 27068719 DOI: 10.1038/ajg.2016.120] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2015] [Accepted: 03/07/2016] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The risk of developing metachronous advanced neoplastic lesions (ANLs) during surveillance after resection of sessile serrated adenomas (SSAs) has not been quantified. METHODS Patients with sporadic SSAs resected between 1 April 2007 and 31 December 2009 who underwent surveillance colonoscopy in our institution were prospectively evaluated. Patients with low-risk adenomas (LRAs), high-risk adenomas (HRAs), and negative index colonoscopy (NIC) during the same period were identified using the pathology database and electronic medical records, and were also included as a comparison cohort. The primary outcome was the comparison of the study groups with regard to incidence of metachronous ANLs during surveillance colonoscopy. RESULTS A total of 185 patients had SSAs, of whom 75 with 101 resected polyps were finally included. The comparison cohort consisted of 564 patients: 140 LRAs (160 polyps), 87 HRAs (478 polyps), and 337 NICs. The overall mean colonoscopy follow-up was for 54.5 months (±s.d. 14). SSA patients with synchronous HRA on index colonoscopy presented a higher incidence rate of metachronous ANL (12.96 per 1,000 person-months) compared with patients with HRA (5.07 per 1,000 person-months), whereas those with synchronous LRA and without synchronous adenoma on index colonoscopy presented a low incidence rate of metachronous ANL (0 and 1.41 per 1,000 person-months, respectively) similar to LRA (1.47 per 1,000 person-months). Among patients with SSA the 3- and 5-year ANL free-cumulative probability was 64.3 and 32.1% in those with synchronous HRA, 100 and 100% in those with synchronous LRA, and 95.1 and 91.7% if no synchronous adenoma was found. CONCLUSIONS Among patients with resected sporadic SSAs the risk of developing metachronous ANL is influenced by the presence of synchronous HRA on index colonoscopy. Patients with SSAs and synchronous HRA on index colonoscopy require closer surveillance, whereas those with synchronous LRA and those without synchronous adenomas may be followed up in the same way as those with LRAs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Single site studies in male Veterans in the U.S. reported increased detection of presumptive cancer precursors (adenomas, hyperplastic polyps) in the proximal colon (cecum-splenic flexure) by water exchange. AIMS Assess the reproducibility of the observation. METHODS Analysis of secondary outcomes collected prospectively in 3 similarly designed randomized controlled trials using water exchange, water immersion and insufflation (air or carbon dioxide). MAIN OUTCOME detection rates of adenomas and hyperplastic polyps in proximal, transverse and right colon (cecum-ascending). RESULTS 704 males (173 screening) were evaluated. In the proximal colon, WE showed increased detection of small adenomas (p=0.009) and adenomas plus hyperplastic polyps (p=0.015) (vs insufflation); increased detection of adenomas plus hyperplastic polyps of any size (p=0.045) and of small size (p=0.04) (vs water immersion). In the right colon water exchange increased detection of small adenomas (19% vs 12.1%, p=0.04) (vs insufflation); small adenomas (19% vs 12%, p=0.038), adenomas plus hyperplastic polyps of any size (25% vs 16.7%, p=0.028) and of small size (23.7% vs 14.6%, p=0.012) (vs water immersion). Water exchange significantly improved bowel cleanliness. Sedation had no impact on lesion detection. CONCLUSIONS Water exchange is a superior insertion technique for detection of adenomas and hyperplastic polyps primarily in the right colon, especially those of small size.

Abstract
AIMS Intestinal stem cell (ISC) markers such as LGR5, ASCL2, EPHB2 and OLFM4, and their clinical implications have been studied extensively in colorectal cancers (CRCs). However, little is known about their expression in precancerous lesions of CRCs. Here, we investigated the expression and distribution of ISC markers in serrated polyps and conventional adenomas. METHODS AND RESULTS Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis revealed that all ISC markers were up-regulated significantly in conventional adenomas with low-grade dysplasia (CALGs) compared with other lesions. RNA in-situ hybridization confirmed that CALGs exhibited strong and diffuse expression of all ISC markers, which indicate a stem cell-like phenotype. However, normal colonic mucosa, hyperplastic polyps and sessile serrated adenomas harboured LGR5(+) cells that were confined to the crypt base and demonstrated an organized expression of ISC markers. Notably, in traditional serrated adenomas, expression of LGR5 and ASCL2 was localized to the ectopic crypts as in the normal crypts, but expression of EPHB2 and OLFM4 was distributed in a diffuse manner, which is suggestive of a progenitor-like features. CONCLUSIONS The expression and distribution profile of ISC markers possibly provides insights into the organization of stem and progenitor-like cells in each type of precancerous lesion of CRC.

Abstract
In recent years, a second pathway for colonic carcinogenesis, distinct from the adenomatous pathway, has been explored. This is referred to as serrated pathway and includes three types of polyp, characterised by a serrated appearance of the crypts: hyperplastic polyps (HP), sessile serrated adenomas (SSA) or lesions, and traditional serrated adenomas. Each lesion has its own genetic, as well as macroscopic and microscopic morphological features. Because of their flat aspect, their detection is easier with chromoendoscopy (carmin indigo or narrow-band imaging). However, as we show in this review, the distinction between SSA and HP is quite difficult. It is now recommended to resect in one piece as it is possible the serrated polyps with a control in a delay depending on the presence or not of dysplasia. These different types of lesion are described in detail in the present review in general population, in polyposis and in inflammatory bowel diseases patients. This review highlights the need to improve characterization and understanding of this way of colorectal cancerogenesis.

Abstract
Aim of the study Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression has been observed in a substantial percentage of classical adenomas of the large bowel. The aim of the study was to assess and compare the expression of COX-2 in serrated polyps of the colon. Material and methods One hundred and nineteen serrated polyps were analyzed. There were 83 hyperplastic polyps (HP), 19 sessile serrated polyps (SSP) and 17 traditional serrated adenomas (TSA). COX-2 expression was assessed semi-quantitatively (0–2) and each lesion was fully characterized in terms of anatomical location, size, histology, age and sex of the patient. The general estimating equation (GEE) model with logit link was used in the statistical analysis. Results Epithelial expression of COX-2 was found in 85/119 serrated polyps (71.43%): 57/83 (68.67%) HP, 16/19 (84.21%) SSP, and 12/17 (70.59%) TSA. In HP and SSP it was predominantly of weak (49/83 HP, 12/19 SSP), whereas in TSA it was mainly of medium/strong intensity (8/17). The TSA category was associated with more frequent COX-2 expression (OR = 7.00, 95% CI: 1.49–32.88, p = 0.014) than HP, but such relation was not found for SSP vs. HP (p > 0.1). No associations between COX-2 expression and clinical parameters were found. Conclusions Immunohistochemical COX-2 expression cannot serve as a diagnostic adjunct to differentiate HP and SSP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Patients with serrated polyposis syndrome (SPS) are advised to undergo endoscopic surveillance for early detection of polyps and prevention of colorectal cancer (CRC). The optimal surveillance and treatment regimen is unknown. We performed a prospective study to evaluate a standardized endoscopic treatment protocol in a large cohort of patients with SPS. METHODS We followed a cohort of patients with SPS who received annual endoscopic surveillance at the Academic Medical Centre in Amsterdam, The Netherlands from January 2007 through December 2012. All patients underwent clearing colonoscopy with removal of all polyps ≥3 mm. After clearance, subsequent follow-up colonoscopies were scheduled annually. The primary outcomes measure was the incidence of CRC and polyps. Secondary outcomes were the incidence of complications and the rate of preventive surgery. RESULTS Successful endoscopic clearance of all polyps ≥3 mm was achieved in 41 of 50 (82%) patients. During subsequent annual surveillance, with a median follow-up time of 3.1 years (interquartile range, 1.5-4.3 years), CRC was not detected. The cumulative risks of detecting CRC, advanced adenomas, or large (≥10 mm) serrated polyps after 3 surveillance colonoscopies were 0%, 9%, 34%, respectively. Twelve patients (24%) were referred for preventive surgery; 9 at initial colonoscopy and 3 during surveillance. Perforations or severe bleeding did not occur. CONCLUSIONS Annual surveillance with complete removal of all polyps ≥3 mm with timely referral of selected high-risk patients for prophylactic surgery prevents development of CRC in SPS patients without significant morbidity. Considering the substantial risk of polyp recurrence, close endoscopic surveillance in SPS seems warranted. www.trialregister.nl ID NTR2757.
