Background:
The association between delayed post-polypectomy bleeding and chronic kidney disease remains unclear.
Objective:
This study investigated whether patients with chronic kidney disease are at an increased risk of delayed post-polypectomy bleeding.
Methods:
This cohort study included patients who underwent colonoscopy and polypectomy in Korea between 2005 and 2022. We assessed various covariates, including patient-, polyp-, and procedure-related factors, using propensity score matching and inverse probability of treatment weighting to determine the impact of chronic kidney disease on delayed post-polypectomy bleeding risk.
Results:
Out of 21,562 patients, 16,591 with 41,014 polyps were included in the analysis. Of these, 2057 (12.4%) had chronic kidney disease, with 894 in early-stage (stages 1 and 2) and 1163 in advanced-stage (stages 3-5). There were 14,534 individuals without chronic kidney disease. After propensity score matching, the risk of delayed post-polypectomy bleeding in patients with chronic kidney disease was significantly higher than that in the non-chronic kidney disease group (OR 1.80, CI 1.12-2.89, p = 0.01). The risk increased with chronic kidney disease stage (OR 2.38, 95% CI 1.01-5.64 for early stage; OR 2.80, 95% CI 1.20-6.51 for advanced stage, all p < 0.05). The results remained robust after inverse probability analysis.
Conclusions:
Chronic kidney disease is an independent risk factor for delayed post-polypectomy bleeding, even in the early stages. The risk correlates with the chronic kidney disease stage. Meticulous attention is imperative during polypectomy for all patients with chronic kidney disease, including those in the early stages.

Diagnosing Appendicitis
It requires a multifaceted approach, starting with a detailed physical examination to pinpoint the location and nature of the pain and identify any associated symptoms. Laboratory tests play a crucial role. A complete Blood Count (CBC) typically reveals leukocytosis (an increased number of...
Inflammatory Bowel Disease I: Ulcerative Colitis
Inflammatory bowel disease, or IBD, encompasses a group of disorders characterized by chronic inflammation or ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract.
Risk Factors
The exact cause of IBD remains unclear, although it is believed to be due to a mix of genetic, environmental, microbial, and immune factors. Genetic factors are significant in determining susceptibility to IBD, with family history being a critical risk factor. Individuals with a first-degree relative who has IBD are at...

Inflammatory Bowel Disease II: Crohn's Disease
Inflammatory bowel disease, commonly known as IBD, refers to a collection of disorders that lead to persistent inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. The two types of IBD are ulcerative colitis, which impacts the colon, and Crohn's disease, which can involve any part of the gastrointestinal segment.
Crohn's disease
Crohn's disease is a chronic, systemic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that predominantly affects the gastrointestinal tract. It is marked by...
