Colonoscopy; Surveillance Indications SR Brown Colorectal Surgeon Sheffield Teaching Hospitals
Colorectal cancer screening in high risk groups Gut 2002;51(Suppl V)
Screening vs Surveillance • Screening • Asymptomatic population • Surveillance • Previous symptoms/high risk
High risk groups • Previous colorectal cancer • Acromegaly • Ureterosigmoidostomy • Hereditary and Familial bowel cancer • IBD • Previous polyps
Aims • To discuss salient aspects of guidelines • To highlight recent developments in colonoscopic surveillance
Colorectal cancer surveillance; aims • Detect recurrence • Diagnose and treat metachronous neoplasia • Evaluate anastomosis
Colorectal cancer surveillance • ‘Incidence metachronous tumours 5-10%’ • Metachronous cancers • approx. 2% • Cochrane review 1.3% (18/1342) • Metachronous adenomas • 22% (425/1923)
Colorectal cancer surveillance • Synchronous/‘early’ metachronous cancers • 4% • 0.6% ‘missed’ due to incomplete colon exam
Lifetime risk of colorectal cancer Houlston et al. 1970
Chances of preventing death with screening colonoscopy35 year old with FDR<45 years • 1 in 25,000 people aged 30-39 develop colorectal cancer per year • Relative risk = 5 • Risk of cancer = 1 in 5000 in per year • Assume asymptomatic cancer dwell time of 3 years • Chance of detecting cancer 1 in 1660
Chances of preventing death with screening colonoscopy55 year old with FDR<45 years • 1 in 1,630 people aged 50-59 develop colorectal cancer per year • Relative risk = 3 • Risk of cancer = 1 in 543 per year • Assume asymptomatic cancer dwell time of 3 years • Chance of detecting cancer 1 in 181
Controversies • ? Survival advantage (Cochrane review 2004) • No clear evidence • May allow earlier detection of cancer • ?lead-time bias
Controversies • Ongoing inflammation increases risk • Dysplasia as a marker for cancer • Reliability • Detection • Histological interpretation
Controversies;detection • Pan-chromoscopy and targeted biopsy (Rutter 2004) • Back-to-back colonoscopy • Conventional then dye-spray • Conventional no dysplasia in 2904 random biopsies • Targeted 157 biopsies 7 patients with dysplasia
Pouch cancer • 15 case reports • 10 residual rectal mucosa • 5 ??pouch mucosa • All pre-existing dysplasia • 8 had cancer in original resection • 9 had mucosectomy
Surveillance recommendations • Pouchoscopy • 1st year then 2-3 yearly • Increased surveillance (yearly) if • Pre-existing dysplasia/cancer • PSC • Mucosectomy if high risk
Summary • Read guidelines!!
