Detection of proximal serrated polyps:a single-center retrospective analysis / 中华消化内镜杂志

Objective To investigate the prevalence and endoscopic detection rate of proximal serrated polyps and to screen the risk factors. Methods The data of 9010 colonoscopies performed by 22 endoscopists between September 2016 and September 2017 were reviewed. The adenoma detection rate (ADR) and proximal serrated polyp detection rate (PSDR) were calculated, and the correlation between ADR and PSDR was estimated by Pearson correlation coefficients. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze PSDR among endoscopists. Results For all subjects, the mean ADR was 30. 07％ ( ranged from 20. 00％ to 40. 78％) and mean PSDR was 4. 70％ ( ranged from 1. 52％ to 9. 28％) . PSDR of males was 1. 38 times of that of females ( OR=1. 38, 95％CI:1. 13-1. 69, P<0. 01) . For 3560 cases ( 39. 51％) of 50 years and older subjects, the mean ADR was 45. 01％ ( 28. 99％-57. 78％) and mean PSDR was 6. 08％(2. 07％-10. 56％). PSDR was moderately correlated with ADR (r=0. 48, P=0. 02). PSDR of males was 1. 36 times of that of females (OR=1. 36, 95％CI: 1. 04-1. 80, P=0. 03). Endoscopist was a significant risk factor for detection of proximal serrated polyps ( P<0. 01) . Compared with endoscopist with the highest PSDR, odds ratio of other endoscopists ranged from 0. 16 (95％CI:0. 06-0. 40, P<0. 01) to 0. 83 (95％CI:0. 53-1. 32, P=0. 44) . Conclusion Proximal serrated polyps are more common in males, who are over 50 years old. The PSDR is highly variable and dependent on endoscopists. It is possible that a certain proportion of proximal serrated polyps are missed during colonoscopy.

Progress in Research on Serrated Polyps / 胃肠病学

Colorectal cancer is a common malignant tumor of digestive tract,and its carcinogenesis pathway includes adenoma pathway (50％-70％),de novo pathway (3％-5％) and serrated polyps pathway (30％-50％).Although a lot of studies on serrated polyps have been published,there is still no consensus understanding on carcinogenesis,endoscopic features and therapeutic strategies of serrated polyps.This article reviewed the endoscopic features,molecular pathological features,and therapeutic strategies of serrated polyps.
