Abstract
OBJECTIVE
We aimed to compare the clinical and endoscopic characteristics of sessile serrated lesions (SSLs) with dysplasia/carcinoma (SSLD/Cs) and SSLs without dysplasia in this systematic review and meta-analysis.
METHODS
MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases and Clinicaltrials.gov were searched for relevant studies published up to August 28, 2023. The primary outcome was lesion size in SSLD/Cs and SSLs without dysplasia. The secondary outcomes included risk of dysplasia/carcinoma, morphology (classified based on the Paris classification), and lesion features such as mucus cap and nodules/protrusions in the two groups.
RESULTS
Thirteen studies with 14 381 patients were included. The proportion of SSLD/Cs ≥10 mm was significantly higher than that of SSLs without dysplasia (odds ratio [OR] 3.82, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.21-12.02, p = 0.02). There was no significant difference in the risk of dysplasia/carcinoma between the proximal (OR 0.80, 95% CI 0.57-1.14) and distal colon (OR 1.25, 95% CI 0.88-1.77, p = 0.21). The 0-Ip (OR 2.47, 95% CI 1.50-4.09) and 0-IIa + Is (OR 10.38, 95% CI 3.08-34.98) morphologies were more prevalent among SSLD/Cs, whereas the 0-IIa morphology (OR 0.38, 95% CI 0.22-0.65) was more prevalent among SSLs without dysplasia (all p < 0.001). Furthermore, mucus cap (OR 0.61, 95% CI 0.42-0.89, p = 0.01) was more common among SSLs without dysplasia, whereas nodules/protrusions (OR 7.80, 95% CI 3.07-19.85, p < 0.001) were more common in SSLD/Cs.
CONCLUSION
SSLs >10 mm, 0-Ip or 0-IIa + Is morphologies, and those with nodules/protrusions are significantly associated with dysplasia/carcinoma.
