Non-compliance with colonoscopy after a positive faecal immunochemical test doubles the risk of dying from colorectal cancer

Zorzi M, Battagello J, Selby K, Capodaglio G, Baracco S, Rizzato S, Chinellato E, Guzzinati S, Rugge M. Gut. 2021 Mar 31:gutjnl-2020-322192. doi: 10.1136/gutjnl-2020-322192. Online ahead of print. Abstract Background: The risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) among subjects with a positive faecal immunochemical test (FIT) who do not undergo a colonoscopy is unknown. We estimated whether non-compliance with colonoscopy after a positive FIT is associated with increased CRC incidence and mortality. Methods: The FIT-based CRC screening programme in the Veneto region (Italy) invited persons aged 50 to...
