Sun M, Moquet J, Ellender M, Bouffler S, Badie C, Baldwin-Cleland R, Monahan K, Latchford A, Lloyd D, Clark S, Anyamene NA, Ainsbury E, Burling Det al., 2023, Potential risks associated with the use of ionizing radiation for imaging and treatment of colorectal cancer in Lynch syndrome patients, Familial Cancer, Vol: 22, Pages: 61-70, ISSN: 1389-9600

The aim of this review is to investigate the literature pertaining to the potential risks of low-dose ionizing radiation to Lynch syndrome patients by use of computed tomography (CT), either diagnostic CT colonography (CTC), standard staging CT or CT surveillance. Furthermore, this review explores the potential risks of using radiotherapy for treatment of rectal cancer in these patients. No data or longitudinal observational studies of the impact of radiation exposure on humans with Lynch syndrome were identified. Limited experimental studies utilizing cell lines and primary cells exposed to both low and high radiation doses have been carried out to help determine radio-sensitivity associated with DNA mismatch repair gene deficiency, the defining feature of Lynch syndrome. On balance, these studies suggest that mismatch repair deficient cells may be relatively radio-resistant (particularly for low dose rate exposures) with higher mutation rates, albeit no firm conclusions can be drawn. Mouse model studies, though, showed an increased risk of developing colorectal tumors in mismatch repair deficient mice exposed to radiation doses around 2 Gy. With appropriate ethical approval, further studies investigating radiation risks associated with CT imaging and radiotherapy relevant doses using cells/tissues derived from confirmed Lynch patients or genetically modified animal models are urgently required for future clinical guidance.

OBJECTIVES: Prophylactic colectomy at a premalignant stage is the cornerstone of management of familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). Before surgery, colonoscopy surveillance is recommended in children with FAP. This study aimed to examine the natural history of FAP in children by evaluating adenoma progression and factors influencing timing of colectomy. METHOD: Patients with FAP younger than 18 years at first surveillance colonoscopy and who had undergone more than 1 colonoscopy were identified. Demographic, endoscopic, genetic, and surgical data were retrieved. Cumulative adenoma (polyp) counts were obtained while accounting for any polypectomies during the study period. The rate of polyp progression and factors influencing the timing of colectomy were evaluated. RESULTS: Eighty-four patients (50% boys; mean age at first colonoscopy 13 years [standard deviation 1.97]) were identified, of which 83 had a family history of FAP. At first colonoscopy, 67 (79%) had <100 adenomas and 29 (35%) had colonic polyps identified despite rectal sparing. The median rate of polyp progression per patient was 12.5 polyps/year (range 0-145). Of the 45 (54%) patients who had undergone surgery, 41 (91%) underwent colectomy with ileorectal or ileodistal sigmoid anastomosis. Polyp progression did not alter the choice of surgical intervention in any patient. CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that adenoma number remains relatively stable in the majority of children under surveillance. Tailored surveillance intervals according to phenotype are a more appropriate strategy as recommended by recently published guidelines.

BackgroundStudies highlighting changes in bacterial composition in the ileoanal pouch are limited by heterogeneity in analysis techniques and sampling strategies Therefore, caution must be used when interpreting microbiota data. Similar to findings in IBD, a decrease in bacterial diversity and ‘dysbiosis’ are associated with acute and chronic inflammation in the pouch. Changes in Clostridium spp. and E. coli are associated with inflamed pouches and treatment response. This study aimed to compare the bacterial microbiota composition in patients with chronic pouchitis who responded to antibiotics vs. those who did not.MethodsPatients with confirmed chronic pouchitis defined by a pouch disease activity score ≥ 7 were treated with antibiotics. If patients were already on antibiotics, they were offered the opportunity to stop. Follow up was at 4 weeks to check clinical status. Patients who came off antibiotics who flared were given the opportunity to restart the antibiotics to prevent deterioration. Patients were analysed as either on antibiotics if they received antibiotics 2 weeks prior to the clinic or off antibiotics if they had stopped all antibiotics 2 weeks prior to follow-up. Stool was collected from patients on follow-up and DNA was extracted from this stool. Sequencing was performed on an Illumina platform. Statistical analysis was performed using STAMP 2.1.3 software with Welch’s two-sided t-test for comparing two groups with false discovery rate correction.ResultsThere were 28 patients in the cohort; 23 patients with chronic pouchitis and 5 healthy controls who had never had pouchitis. Ten patients were female. The median age of the cohort was 47 years (range 26–74 years). A total of 12 samples on antibiotics and 11 off antibiotics. There were 10 responders and 13 non-responders. There were no differences between responders and non-responders and no differences in those taking antibiotics vs. those not taking antibiotics with chroni
