Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate Endocuff- assisted colonoscopy in terms of its possible additive contribution in the detection of important lesions, namely polyps and cancers, compared to standard colonoscopy, in a series of patients undergoing back-to-back screening or surveillance colonoscopies in a randomized fashion. Moreover, we aim to assess possible changes regarding post-polypectomy surveillance programs following Endocuff utilization.
