International Journal of Colorectal Disease, 10/28/09
Mai CM et al. – Colonoscopy–related perforation can progress to peritonitis and sepsis, resulting in serious morbidity or death. High–anesthetic risk patients with colonic perforation have a longer hospital stay and a poor prognosis. Hence, patients need to be informed of the complications of colonoscopy, and clinicians must be cautioned about the potential problems for patients with a high–anesthetic risk when performing the procedure.
