Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)is an extremely common gastrointestinal disorder that can give rise to dysplasia and colorectal cancer (CRC). There are variousdiagnosticmethods but endoscopy has proved to be the best in the diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of IBD. The objective of this review is to evaluate the efficacy of endoscopy in detecting patients with IBD. A structured search strategy on PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar was used, as well as formal inclusion or exclusion, data extraction, validity assessment, and meta-analysis. RevMan 5.4 (Review Manager (RevMan) (Computer program). Version 5.4. The Cochrane Collaboration, 2020) was used for the meta-analysis, and forest plots were generated for each outcome separately. All of these studies are prospective cohorts and 11 of these are randomized controlled trials (RCTs). In IBD, both chromoendoscopy and white light endoscopy are useful in detecting dysplasiaand neoplastic lesions. Furthermore, narrow-band imaging is a less time-consuming option for endoscopic surveillance. The meta-analysis also showed thatchromoendoscopy is superior to other methods.
