Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS To date, no regional evidence of long-term colorectal cancer (CRC) risk reduction after endoscopic premalignant lesion removal has been established. We aimed to analyze this over a long-term follow-up evaluation. METHODS This was a prospective cohort study of participants from the Japan Polyp Study conducted at 11 Japanese institutions. Participants underwent scheduled follow-up colonoscopies after a 2-round baseline colonoscopy process. The primary outcome was CRC incidence after randomization. The observed/expected ratio of CRC was calculated using data from the population-based Osaka Cancer Registry. Secondary outcomes were the incidence and characteristics of advanced neoplasia (AN). RESULTS A total of 1895 participants were analyzed. The mean number of follow-up colonoscopies and the median follow-up period were 2.8 years (range, 1-15 y) and 6.1 years (range, 0.8-11.9 y; 11,559.5 person-years), respectively. Overall, 4 patients (all males) developed CRCs during the study period. The observed/expected ratios for CRC in all participants, males, and females, were as follows: 0.14 (86% reduction), 0.18, and 0, respectively, and 77 ANs were detected in 71 patients (6.1 per 1000 person-years). Of the 77 ANs detected, 31 lesions (40.3%) were laterally spreading tumors, nongranular type. Nonpolypoid colorectal neoplasms (NP-CRNs), including flat (<10 mm), depressed, and laterally spreading, accounted for 59.7% of all detected ANs. Furthermore, 2 of the 4 CRCs corresponded to T1 NP-CRNs. CONCLUSIONS Endoscopic removal of premalignant lesions, including NP-CRNs, effectively reduced CRC risk. More than half of metachronous ANs removed by surveillance colonoscopy were NP-CRNs.

Metachronous neoplasms in patients with laterally spreading tumours during surveillance. United European Gastroenterol J 2021; 9:378-387. [PMID: 33245025 PMCID: PMC8259420 DOI: 10.1177/2050640620965317] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2020] [Accepted: 09/20/2020] [Indexed: 01/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Laterally spreading tumours represent a major challenge for endoscopic detection and resection. Objective To examine synchronous and metachronous neoplasms in patients with laterally spreading tumours. Methods We prospectively collected colonoscopy and histopathology data from patients who underwent colonoscopy in our centre at up to 6 years' follow‐up. Post‐resection surveillance outcomes between laterally spreading tumours, flat colorectal neoplasms 10 mm or greater, and large polypoid colorectal neoplasms, polypoid colorectal neoplasms 10 mm or greater, were compared. Results Between 2008 and 2012, 8120 patients underwent colonoscopy for symptoms (84.6%), screening (6.7%) or surveillance (8.7%). At baseline, 151 patients had adenomatous laterally spreading tumours and 566 patients had adenomatous large polypoid colorectal neoplasms. Laterally spreading tumour patients had more synchronous colorectal neoplasms than large polypoid colorectal neoplasm patients (mean 3.34 vs. 2.34, p < 0.001). Laterally spreading tumour patients significantly more often developed metachronous colorectal neoplasms (71.6% vs. 54.2%, p = 0.0498) and colorectal neoplasms with high grade dysplasia/submucosal invasion than large polypoid colorectal neoplasm patients (36.4% vs. 15.8%, p < 0.001). After correction for age and gender, laterally spreading tumour patients were more likely than large polypoid colorectal neoplasm patients to develop a colorectal neoplasm with high grade dysplasia or submucosal invasion (hazard ratio 2.9, 95% confidence interval 1.8–4.6). The risk of metachronous colorectal cancer was not significantly different in laterally spreading tumours compared to large polypoid colorectal neoplasm patients. Conclusion Patients with laterally spreading tumours developed more metachronous colorectal neoplasms with high grade dysplasia/submucosal invasion than large polypoid colorectal neoplasm patients. Based on these findings endoscopic treatment and surveillance recommendations for patients with laterally spreading tumours should be optimised.
Summarize the established knowledge on this subject
Laterally spreading tumours (LSTs) are a heterogeneous group of large, predominantly benign flat neoplasms that can be endoscopically treated, requiring additional time and expertise LSTs consist of different endoscopic subtypes which are predictive of the risk of submucosal invasion (SMI) Patients with LSTs harbour more synchronous neoplasms than patients with large polypoid colorectal neoplasms (LP‐CRNs)
What are the significant and/or new findings of this study?
Patients with LSTs more frequently have metachronous neoplasms than patients with LP‐CRNs, justifying strict surveillance LSTs can be effectively managed by conventional endoscopic resections in most cases

Gastrointest Endosc 2018; 88:705-711.e1. [PMID: 29803767 PMCID: PMC6139042 DOI: 10.1016/j.gie.2018.05.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2018] [Accepted: 05/15/2018] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Endoscopists who encounter an interval colorectal cancer (I-CRC) may be concerned about the implications because I-CRCs may represent a lapse in colonoscopy quality and a missed opportunity for prevention. We wanted to determine the I-CRC rate per colonoscopy examination and to examine the effect of colonoscopy volume and adenoma detection rate (ADR) on the number of I-CRCs attributable to an endoscopist. METHODS We determined the rate of I-CRC diagnosis per outpatient colonoscopy examination by measuring the incidence of CRC diagnosis in practice and by assessing, via literature review, the percentage of cancers that are interval. We also estimated the number of attributable I-CRCs as a function of ADR and colonoscopy volume. RESULTS Among 93,562 colonoscopies performed in 2013 to 2015 by 120 physicians in 4 diverse U.S. medical centers, 526 CRCs were diagnosed (.6%). Of 149,556 CRCs in the published literature, 7958 were I-CRCs (5.25% ± .94%). With rates of .6% (CRC per colonoscopy) and 5.25% (I-CRC per CRC), the rate of I-CRC is 1 per 3174 colonoscopies (95% confidence interval, 1 per 2710 to 1 per 3875). An endoscopist at the median of outpatient colonoscopy volume (316/year) in the lowest ADR quintile of detection (7%-19%) would have an I-CRC attributed every 8.2 years, or 4.2 I-CRCs in a 35-year career, versus every 16.7 years, or 2.0 I-CRCs in a 35-year career, for an endoscopist in the highest ADR quintile (33%-52%). CONCLUSIONS An average-volume endoscopist will have 2 to 4 attributable I-CRCs in a 35-year career, but the frequency will vary depending on colonoscopy volume and ADR.
