Endoscopic Techniques for Colorectal Neoplasia Surveillance in Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background and aims

Dye-based chromoendoscopy (DCE) has been the preferred method for colonoscopy surveillance in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, with advances in endoscopy, virtual chromoendoscopy (VCE) techniques have emerged. This network meta-analysis evaluates the effectiveness of different endoscopy techniques for IBD patient surveillance.

Methods

Sixteen randomized controlled trials involving 2514 patients were included in the analysis, comparing endoscopy techniques in IBD patient surveillance: DCE, high-definition white light endoscopy (WLE), standard-definition WLE, i-scan, narrow band imaging (NBI), flexible spectral imaging color enhancement (FICE), and autofluorescence imaging (AFI). We assessed the per patient neoplasia detection rate,
