Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: With the intent of maximizing adenoma detection rate (ADR), different devices and colonoscopic innovations have been introduced over the past few years. There are a variety of attachment devices available for use in colonoscopy, all intended to improve ADR. In this review, we evaluate the evidence surrounding the available attachment devices and their impact on ADR. RECENT FINDINGS: Endocuff, Endoring, Transparent cap, G-EYE balloon, and Third Eye Retroscope were all included in this review. Three of the devices, Endocuff, Endoring, and transparent hood or cap, have been shown to increase ADR without significantly altering the use of the colonoscope. Although balloon-assisted colonoscopy is not currently FDA-approved, it has the potential to increase ADR as well. Mechanical enhancement has been shown to complement the current forward-viewing colonoscope, and Endocuff appears to be the most beneficial attachment to improve ADR.
