Popis: Background and Aim The recommended intervals between surveillance colonoscopies are based on the most recent examination findings. However, whether the two previous colonoscopies affect second surveillance colonoscopic findings is not established. The aim of this study is to estimate the risk of obtaining high-risk findings (HRF) on the next surveillance colonoscopy using the results of two previous colonoscopies, and to estimate the appropriate time interval for the next surveillance colonoscopy. Methods Among subjects who underwent screening colonoscopy during January 2002–December 2009, patients who underwent second surveillance colonoscopy before June 2012 were enrolled. “No adenoma” was defined as a hyperplastic polyp or no polyp, “low-risk findings (LRF)” as one or two small (
