Impact

Effective allocation of surveillance colonoscopies is crucial to protect higher-risk pts from CRC while minimising invasive procedures for low-risk pts.

Our unique data will inform recommendations for ongoing surveillance in future post-polypectomy surveillance guidelines.

Conclusion

Pts with high-risk findings at both baseline & SC1 needed a second surveillance colonoscopy, whereas those with low-risk findings at SC1 did not, regardless of their baseline findings.

We couldn't draw conclusions for the LR-HR group due to limited CRC cases.

Findings:

Compared to the general population, CRC incidence after SC1 was:
▪️ ~0.5 times lower in the LR-LR group
▪️ - Non-significantly different in the HR-LR or LR-HR groups, although the 95%CI for the LR-HR group was wide due to few CRC cases
▪️ - ~3 times higher in the HR-HR group
