Management of suspected perforation following colonoscopy: a case report.
J Fam Pract. 1993 May; 36(5):567-70.JF

Abstract

Early detection of colon cancer is imperative for a good prognosis. Family physicians are therefore becoming the front line of defense in the fight against colorectal malignancy. Many family physicians are incorporating colonoscopy into their practices in an attempt to avoid costly referrals and loss of continuity of care. While the complication rate for colonoscopy is extremely low, any physician who performs colonoscopy must be fully aware of all possible complications and their management.
