Outcomes of Patients Who Had an Incomplete Colonoscopy After a Positive Fecal Immunological Test

Conditions
Colorectal Cancer
Registration Number
NCT05172713
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Strasbourg, France
Brief Summary

In France, colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer death. Its organized screening (Organized ColoRectal Cancer Screening: DOCCR), now carried out by immunological test for occult blood in the stool, has proven its effectiveness. When the immunological test is positive, the Haute Autorité de Santé recommends a total colonoscopy. In 5 to 10% of cases, this colonoscopy is incomplete. The renewal of the endoscopic procedure or the performance of additional second-line examinations are then recommended. At present, however, the respective place of second-line examinations to be performed in this situation is not the subject of specific and validated recommendations.
