Abstract

Background and Objective: Colon cancer is one of the most prevalent cancers among different societies around the world for which some diagnostic modalities have been developed. With CT colonography there is the possibility of observing extracolonic findings which might have significant clinical importance. Here we evaluated the frequencies of extracolonic findings. Subjects and Methods: This cross sectional study was performed from 2016 to 2019 in Isfahan on 402 patients with colon problems who had CT colonography imaging. Data regarding on extracolonic findings with moderate to significant importance were collected by questionnaire from patients ct reports and analyzed. Results: There were significant relationships between total extracolonic findings and findings with moderate importance like: (Abdominal aortic aneurysm below5, Ovarian lesion possibly just a cyst, Lung nodule. Hydronephrosis likely chronic puj, Mesenteric penniculitis, Pancreas cysts, Psoas asymmetry Small pericardial effusion, Small kidney possible renal artery stenosis, Mild porcelain gallbladder) as well as with age These findings were more frequent at older ages (P <0. 001). Discussion: Generally, these results indicated that CT colonography in patients with colon problems especially patients at older ages might lead to find extracolonic findings with high importance like: ( Possible malignancy e, g lung or solid organ mass lymphadenopathy, Abdominal aortic aneurysm more than 5, Bone fracture, Adrenal hemmorhage, Pneumonia, Considerable hydronephrosis, Bone lesion Appendix mucinous tumour, Diverticulitis with abcess or perfusion, Severe porcelain gall bladder).
