Summary |
Introduction |
The objective of our study was to describe and analyse the Post-Colonoscopy Colorectal Cancers (PCCRCs) and endoscopist performance-related risk factors in the Isère regional screening programme.
Method |
This was a population-based retrospective cohort study between 2002–2013, where Post-Colonoscopy Colorectal Cancers (PCCRCs) were defined as colorectal adenocarcinoma diagnosed between six and sixty months post-colonoscopy following a positive gFOBT. We analysed the endoscopist performance-related risk factors of the 62 gastroenterologists who had carried out at least 30 colonoscopies during this period.
Results |
During the period reviewed, there were 10,557 negative colonoscopies performed. Fifteen post-colonoscopy colorectal cancers were diagnosed from 2002–2013 with an average patient age of 67.1 years. Men comprised 73% of the cases and 53% of all the cases were found in the distal colon. These 15 cases comprised 1.1% of all Colorectal Cancers (CRCs) diagnosed in the screening programme, with an incidence rate of 0.42 (0.21–0.77) per 1,000 person-years. The aetiological breakdown was as follows: 47% related to missed cancers, 27% were new cancers, 20% were failed biopsy detection, and 6% related to incomplete removal. The Adenoma Detection Rate (ADR) among gastroenterologists was an average of 30%, but large heterogeneity was present within this number, ranging from 11% to 49%.
Conclusion |
The post-colonoscopy colorectal cancer prevalence and incident rate were low relative to the literature. However, significant heterogeneity was present in the adenoma detection rate. Decreasing this heterogeneity by establishing a national benchmark, regular performance feedback and training modules should homogenise adenoma detection rates and decrease the number of interval cancers in the region.
