ObjectivesColorectal cancer (CRC) incidence and mortality are twice as high among Alaska Native people as among non-Hispanic White people in the United States; as such, colonoscopy is a recommended screening test for Alaska Native people. Adenoma detection rate (ADR) is measured in patients at average risk of CRC undergoing initial screening colonoscopy and reflects the prevalence of precancerous polyps in a screened population. We evaluated the ADR among Alaska Native people living in Interior Alaska.MethodsThis project evaluated the ADR among Alaska Native and American Indian adults aged ≥40 years (N = 460) living in Interior Alaska, using a retrospective medical record review of patients referred for screening colonoscopy from February 1, 2018, through March 31, 2022. The main outcome measure was ADR, stratified by age and sex.ResultsThe ADR was 45.0% overall: 43.0% among women and 47.1% among men. Among patients aged ≥50 years, the ADR was 67.1%: 62.7% among women and 70.7% among men. Among patients aged 40-49 years, the ADR was 34.4%: 35.3% among women and 33.3% among men.ConclusionsMeasured ADR was high among Alaska Native men and women aged ≥50 years in Interior Alaska and in all age groups that were screened. These findings have implications for which CRC screening methods, intervals, and age to begin screening are most appropriate for Alaska Native people, as well as the need for future research on the pathology, etiology, and natural history of CRC in this population.
