                    [Summary] => Although high body mass index (BMI) has been positively correlated with colorectal cancer, its impact in screening has yet to be fully determined. Now researchers have found a relationship between increasing BMI and risk for significant colorectal neoplasia in women. Our goal was to examine the impact of BMI in a screening population with equal numbers of men and women. Our results may have implications for colorectal cancer screening in female patients. During the study, 2,300 consecutive colonoscopies were performed on asymptomatic patients.
