One or more polyps in 160 subjects (3.79%) were detected, of which 86 were adenomas and 3 severe dysplasia. All the polyps were removed by means of endoscopic polypectomy.For selected screening in small population,fiberoptic sigmoi-doscopy is recommended. As for mass screening, it is advisable to run fecal occult blood test (FOBT) first.
