Overview
Effective measures for the secondary prevention of colon polyps include surveillance after finding polyps on routine screening. According to guidelines for colonoscopysurveillance after screening and polypectomy by the US Multi-Society Task Force on colorectal cancer, surveillance and screening are more frequent after first or second adenomatous polyps or serrated polyps. Hyperplastic polyps are considered benign and screening remains similar to general population.
Secondary Prevention
- Effective measures for the secondary prevention of colon polyps include:
- Surveillance after finding polyps on routine screening
- According to guidelines for colonoscopy surveillance after screening and polypectomy by the US Multi-Society Task Force on colorectal cancer, recommendations for surveillance and screening are as follows:[1][2][3]
| Baseline colonoscopy | Recommendation | |
|---|---|---|
| Hyperplastic polyps | Size <10 mm | Colonoscopy every 10 years |
| Adenomatous polyps | 1-2 tubular adenomas <10 mm | Colonoscopy every 5-10 years |
| 3-10 tubular adenomas <10 mm | Colonoscopy every 3 years | |
| >10 adenomas | Colonoscopy <3 years | |
| Tubular adenomas ≥10 mm | Colonoscopy every 3 years | |
| Villous adenomas | Colonoscopy every 3 years | |
| Adenoma with high grade dysplasia | Colonoscopy every 3 years | |
| No adenoma after first low-risk adenoma | Colonoscopy every 10 years | |
| No adenoma after first high-risk adenoma | Colonoscopy every 5 years | |
| Second adenomatous polyps | Second low-risk adenoma | Colonoscopy after 5 years |
| High-risk adenoma following low-risk adenoma | Colonoscopy every 3 years | |
| Low-risk adenoma following high-risk adenoma | Colonoscopy after 5 years | |
| Second high-risk adenoma | Colonoscopy every 3 years | |
| Serrated polyps | Sessile serrated polyp(s) <10 mm with no dysplasia | Colonoscopy every 5 years |
| Sessile serrated polyp(s) ≥10 mm | Colonoscopy every 3 years | |
| Sessile serrated polyp with dysplasia | Colonoscopy every 3 years | |
| Traditional serrated adenoma | Colonoscopy every 3 years | |
| Serrated polyposis syndrome | Colonoscopy every year | |
