White-light Endoscopy is Adequate for Lynch Syndrome Surveillance in a Randomized and Non-inferiority Study

Dye-based pancolonic chromoendoscopy is recommended for colorectal cancer surveillance in patients with Lynch syndrome. However, there is scarce evidence to support its superiority to high-definition white-light endoscopy. We performed a prospective study assess whether in the hands of high detecting colonoscopists, high-definition, white-light endoscopy is non-inferior to pancolonic chromoendoscopy for detection of adenomas in patients with Lynch syndrome.
