Article Abstract
Endoscopic resection of pre-malignant polyps remains a cornerstone of colorectal cancer prevention. This review provides an evidence-based analysis of the current approaches to endoscopic colorectal polyp management. Cold snare resection is recommended for small and diminutive polyps. Sessile serrated lesions are safely and efficiently removed using cold snare with or without sub-mucosal lift. For large non-pedunculated colorectal polyps (LNPCPs), snare tip soft coagulation of the resection margins reduces recurrence, post-resection clip closure of proximal colon lesions prevents post-endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) bleeding and early recognition of deep mural injury (DMI) using the Sydney DMI Classification guides intervention and prevents delayed perforation. Cold-forceps avulsion with adjuvant snare tip soft coagulation (CAST) is an effective tool for managing residual or recurrent adenoma. Endoscopic sub-mucosal dissection (ESD) is recommended for selected high-risk LNPCPs based on location and endoscopic optical assessment. This comprehensive review synthesises these points based on current evidence and provides practical guidance for endoscopists, aimed at improving resection of colorectal polyps to enhance patient outcomes and safety.

Descriptive study on the use of colonoscopy as a screening method for colorectal cancer.
Rev Gastroenterol Mex (Engl Ed)
September 2025
Servicio de Clínica Médica, Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Introduction And Aims: The aim of this study was to estimate the number of patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer (CRC) that underwent their first screening colonoscopy and to describe the endoscopic and anatomopathologic findings and characteristics of the patients that had a screening colonoscopy for CRC.
Materials And Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted that included patients aged 50 to 79 years, with prepaid healthcare at a tertiary care hospital, that underwent a first colonoscopy within the time frame of 2013 and 2022. The demographic data, endoscopic findings, and biopsy results were collected.
Limited utility of faecal immunochemical testing in a colorectal cancer screening programme for adults with cystic fibrosis: insights from a prospective UK study.
BMJ Open Gastroenterol
September 2025
Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust, Manchester, UK.
Objective: People with cystic fibrosis (pwCF) are at significantly increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC), prompting international recommendations for earlier screening with colonoscopy. The utility of faecal immunochemical testing (FIT) as a screening adjunct in pwCF remains unclear. This study evaluates FIT's diagnostic performance and uptake within a CRC screening programme in a UK CF centre.

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) represent a paradigm shift and a therapeutic revolution in the management of mismatch repair-deficient/microsatellite instability-high (dMMR/MSI-H) colorectal cancer (CRC), and therefore for patients with Lynch syndrome (LS). The risk of developing metachronous cancers and colorectal polyps in a population of LS patients treated with ICI(s) is not well understood.
Materials And Methods: In a single-center cohort study, we retrospectively reviewed 93 LS patients from the prospective 'ImmunoMSI' cohort, who were diagnosed with dMMR/MSI-H gastrointestinal cancer and were treated with ICIs for index metastatic gastrointestinal cancer between February 2015 and April 2024.

Background: The CRP-albumin-lymphocyte (CALLY) index has potential clinical value as a novel marker integrating inflammatory, nutritional and immune status in the development of colorectal polyps. This study examined whether gender factors influence the association between CALLY and colorectal polyps; in addition to elucidating whether metabolic pathways mediate this relationship.
Methods: This is a cross-sectional study including 5409 adult health screening participants who completed colonoscopy.
Territorial equity assessment within a colorectal cancer screening program: usefulness of colonoscopy quality indicators.

Objective: The primary goal of a public health system is to ensure universal access to high-quality medical care. However, disparities in health outcomes have been observed across socio-demographic groups, some of them potentially related to their geographical location. To assess territorial equity, the Catalan Colorectal Cancer Screening Program was used, focusing on the adenoma detection rate (ADR) endoscopists.
