Advances in Follow-up Colonoscopy Strategy after Endoscopic Resection of Colorectal Polyps / 胃肠病学

ABSTRACT

Surveillance colonoscopy after endoscopic resection of colorectal adenomas is a crucial step in colorectal cancer screening. After identifying the patients at risk,a tailored follow-up colonoscopy surveillance strategy should be formulated. The follow up colonoscopy time interval after endoscopic resection of colorectal adenomas should be scheduled on the basis of past history,family history,and results of initial high quality colonoscopy examination. By reviewing the American and European guidelines for surveillance after polypectomy,a follow-up colonoscopy time interval schedule matched with the risk stratification is suggested for discussion.
