ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the effect of colorectal cancer screening in the general population in Guangzhou,and provide evidence for the for development of colorectal cancer screening policy and strategy.Methods The data of colorectal cancer screening in Guangzhou during 2015-2016 were collected.The participation,the positive rate of fecal occult blood test,the detection rate of colonoscopy and screening effect of colonoscopy were evaluated.Results A total of 220 834 residents aged 50-74 years received the screening,and the positive rate of the screening was 16.77％ (37 040 cases).Colonoscopy was performed for 7 821 cases (21.12％).Colorectal lesions were found in 4 126 cases (52.76％),of which 614 (7.85％) and 73 (0.93％) and 230 (2.94％) were identified as advanced adenoma,severe dysplasia lesions and colorectal cancers,respectively.The detection rates of all colorectal lesions were higher in men than in women (all P＜0.01).The diagnostic rate of early lesion was 87.24％,and 99 early cancer cases were found,accounting for 46.26％ of the total cases.The overall screening detection rate of colorectal cancer was 104.15/100 000,higher than the incidence rate (81.18/100 000) in colorectal cancer surveillance (P＜0.001),but age group ＜70 years had higher detection rate,age group ≥70 years had higher incidence rate.Conclusions The colorectal cancer screening strategy in Guangzhou is effective in the detection of the population at high risk,increase the detection rate of colorectal lesions,early diagnosis rate of precancerous lesions and diagnosis rate of early colorectal cancer.The benefit in those aged ≤69 years was more obvious than that in those aged 70-74 years.It is necessary to improve the compliancy of colorectal cancer screening in population at high risk.
