Diagnostic yield of upper gastrointestinal tract endoscopy and colonoscopy in patients with iron deficiency anaemia while on direct oral anticoagulants
In patients presenting with new-onset, unexplained IDA while on a DOAC, the prevalence of CRCs is lower than previously reported in studies involving populations not prescribed DOACs. Conversely, there is a higher incidence of AAs, including high-risk histological features, such as tubulovillous adenomas and sessile serrated polyps.
