Methods Forty-two patients who were clinically suspicious of colonic polyps or underwent colonic polyps screening received examinations with both CTC and conventional colonoscopy. Sixteen- or 64-slice spiral computed tomography and professional imaging processing techniques were used for evaluation. Per-polyp and per-patient results were analyzed. Those by per-polyp were subsequently divided into ≥10 mm group, 5-10 mm group, and ≤5 mm group. Sensitivity, positive predictive value (PPV), specificity, negative predictive value (NPV), and accuracy were calculated using statistical method for diagnostic studies, with conventional colonoscopy as a gold standard. Results Ninety and 61 polyps were found by CTC and conventional colonoscopy, respectively. The per-polyp sensitivity/PPV were 80.3%/55.6% in total, and 100%/92.9%, 93.8%/65.2%, and 68.8%/ 41.5% in the ≥10 mm group, 5-10 mm group, and ≤5 turn group, respectively. The per-patient sensitivity, PPV, specificity, NPV, and accuracy were 97.1%, 89.5%, 42.9%, 75.0%, and 88.1%, respectively. Conclusion CTC can clearly reveal the morphology of colonic polyps and be used as a routine monitoring method for the clinical diagnosis of polyps.展开更多

Methods: After entering the sigmoid to 10 cm, the shaft of the scope should be gradually straightened. The scope shouldn’t be advanced continuously though the lumen is obvious, otherwise, a loop may be formed and to straighten the shaft will be difficult. The patients who underwent colonoscopy before laparotomy were followed up to investigate the reasons of difficulties in insertion. For the patients who have several lumens after side-to-end anastomosis, the normal pathway is identified according to the direction of stool fluid and characteristics of large and small intestinal mucosas, and the colonoscope is prevented from entering the blind bottom. Results: In 10 000 colonoscopies, success rate o f reaching the cecum was 98. 8% and there were no complications. Conclusion: The speed of insertion, the success rate in colonoscopy and complications prevention will be improved if the manifestation of anatomic variations and difficulties in inserting scope are concerned.展开更多
