abstract = {Demographic aging is expected to increase the number of
colorectal cancer (CRC) cases in many countries. Screening
for CRC can substantially reduce the disease burden but its
use has remained rather limited in Germany. We aimed to
quantify the expected impact of demographic aging on the
future CRC burden and the potential to reduce that burden by
increased use of screening colonoscopy offers in Germany.We
obtained sex- and age-specific data on colonoscopy use from
AOK, the biggest health insurance provider in Germany, and
combined these with the projected demographic development
and current CRC incidence rates. We estimated the number of
new CRC cases until 2060, assuming screening colonoscopy use
to be constant or to increase to between 1·5 and 3 times
the current levels.Ten-year screening colonoscopy
utilization rates were low $(<20\%$ in both sexes in all age
groups). Assuming no change in screening colonoscopy use,
the overall annual caseload was predicted to increase from
approximately 62,000 cases in 2020 to more than 70,000 cases
by the year 2040 and more than 75,000 cases by 2050. To
avoid increasing case numbers, an increase of screening
colonoscopy use to more than 3 times current levels would be
needed.At current levels of screening use, the strong
effects of the demographic aging imply that the CRC caseload
will significantly increase in the decades to come. CRC
screening efforts will need to be substantially increased to
even maintain the current level of incident cases.German
