Digestive Disease Week (DDW) 2014. Abstract 113. Presented May 4, 2014 reports that detection of sessile serrated polyps was significantly greater with stool DNA than with fecal immunochemical test (FIT)
Sessile serrated polyps are precursors to approximately one-third of colorectal cancers. They are more challenging to identify endoscopically than conventional adenomas because they are typically flat, located in the proximal colon, and nonhemorrhagic.
