Colonoscopy screening of 200 people, 40% found intestinal polyps.

According to the statistics of the Department of Gastroenterology of Qifu Hospital, the hospital launched the "Early Screening Care Program for Colorectal Cancer" in the second half of 2020 to give certain subsidies to eligible citizens. By the end of 12, 17, * * * has helped nearly 200 patients who meet the scheme to complete the screening, among which 2 cases of colorectal cancer were found, and the proportion of colonic polyps was as high as 40%.

Qin, deputy director of the Department of Gastroenterology, said that colorectal cancer is almost asymptomatic in the early stage, and 90% is developed from colon polyps. Therefore, it is very important to pay attention to screening and early treatment.

Aunt Tang, 65, is in good health. She participated in the colorectal cancer screening program, and the fecal occult blood test was positive. Remembering that her 90-year-old mother had rectal cancer, Ms. Tang hurried to Qifu Hospital for a comprehensive diagnosis and treatment. Qin Wei: She arranged a painless colonoscopy and found a polypoid tumor about 2.3×2.5 cm in the rectum. Colonoscopy was arranged for radical resection of tumor, and postoperative pathological examination showed some high-grade tumor-like lesions-precancerous lesions.

Qin, deputy director of the Department of Gastroenterology, explained: "If this polyp is not removed, it will develop into cancer or spread and metastasis in two or three years. Therefore, regular physical examination and early treatment are very important. "

Because of the early detection, Aunt Tang simply removed the tumor through colonoscopy, fasted 1 day and observed for 2-3 days, and was discharged smoothly.

Qin emphasized that the clinical feature of early colorectal cancer is "asymptomatic". When the patient suddenly lost weight, bloody stool and obvious abdominal pain before going to the hospital for examination, the condition has entered the middle and late stage and missed the best treatment time.

Qin pointed out in particular that colonoscopy should be done in time under the following circumstances:

1, abnormal stool: those with bloody stool, black stool and other symptoms, or those with long-term positive fecal occult blood test; People with mucus and pus in their stools; Frequent defecation, deformity or diarrhea; Difficulty in defecation or irregular defecation recently; The stool becomes thin and deformed; Long-term abdominal pain and bloating.

2. Unexplained weight loss and emaciation; Anemia of unknown cause; Unexplained abdominal masses need to be diagnosed clearly; Unexplained increase of CEA.

3, long-term chronic constipation, long-term incurable; Chronic colitis, long-term medication, long-term cure; Colon tumor was suspected, but barium enema x-ray examination was negative.

4. For people with a family history of colorectal cancer, a large number of studies have proved that if a person has colorectal cancer, his immediate family members (parents, children, brothers and sisters) are 2-3 times more likely to have colorectal cancer than the normal population.

People over the age of 5.40, especially those who have long-term high-protein and high-fat diet and long-term alcoholism, had better have a routine physical examination and colonoscopy to find some asymptomatic early colorectal cancer as soon as possible.
