Abstract

Background

Endoscopic piecemeal mucosal resection (EPMR) is a widely accepted treatment for colorectal tumefaction. However, as it is associated with a significant recurrence rate, the technique remains controversial. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the risk factors for the local recurrence of colorectal neoplasms after EPMR.

Methods

The study population of our retrospective evaluation comprised 222 patients who had undergone EPMR from January 2002 to July 2007 and who had had at least 1 surveillance colonoscopy 3–6 months after the initial treatment.

Results

Local recurrence was detected in 42 patients (19%) between 6 and 15 months after EPMR. Our multivariate analysis revealed that the resection of 5 or more neoplasm specimens, compared with fewer than 5, was 3 times more likely to result in local recurrence (P = 0.005). No statistically significant correlation of local recurrence with lesion size, location, macroscopic type, or histology was detected.

Conclusion

The removal of 5 or more neoplasm specimens is an independent risk factor for local recurrence after EPMR. Careful colonoscopic surveillance should be performed after multiple piecemeal resection.

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
