Mo1695 WATER EXCHANGE (WE) INCREASES SESSILE SERRATED POLYP DETECTION RATE (SSPDR) COMPARED WITH AIR (AI) OR CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2) INSUFFLATION - POOLED DATA ANALYSIS OF FOUR RECENT REPORTS

A net-work meta-analysis (GIE. 2018;88:589) showed water exchange (WE) provided the highest adenoma detection rate (ADR). The impact on sessile serrated polyp detection rate (SSPDR) was not addressed. SSP have increased malignant potential (Curr Treat Options Gastroenterol. 2015;13:156). They have subtle appearance (AJG. 2012;107:1315). They cluster in the proximal colon (61%) (Arch Pathol Lab Med. 2015;139:388) co-localizing with interval cancers (64% to 68%) (Gastro. 2014;146:950; Cancer. 2012;118:3044).
