Dye-based chromoendoscopy detects more neoplasia than white light endoscopy in patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis and IBD

Abstract

Background and study aims Patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have a high risk of colorectal cancer. There is no agreement on the best technique for surveillance for colorectal neoplasia. We aimed to assess whether chromoendoscopy and/or high-definition endoscopy is associated with increased detection of neoplasia in patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis undergoing surveillance compared with when they were not used.
