Risultati per: Uso di aspirina e rischio di cancro del colon-retto tra gli anziani

In more than half of the colorectal cancer (CRC) screening participants with a positive fecal immunochemical test (FIT) result, no advanced neoplasia (AN) is detected at colonoscopy. The positive FIT result could also be generated by cancers located proximal to the colon: upper gastrointestinal, oral cavity, nose and throat cancers. We evaluated screenees’ risk of being diagnosed with a cancer proximal to the colon within the three years and compared risks between those with a positive versus those with a negative FIT.
