Risk of metachronous neoplastic lesions during post‐polypectomy surveillance in individuals with advanced colorectal neoplasia at initial screening colonoscopy
Abstract:Background and Aim:The evidence of associations between some types of advanced colorectal neoplasia (ACN) at baseline and the risk of metachronous neoplasia is inconsistent. This study aimed to elucidate the incidence of metachronous neoplasia during post-polypectomy surveillance in individuals with ACN at baseline and examine the risk factors for its high incidence. Methods: Data from individuals who underwent endoscopic resection for ACN and received surveillance colonoscopy were analyzed. Data from individu… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
