Intraoperative colonoscopy aids surgical decisions in 66 patients, proving valuable for detecting leaks and guiding operations. This endoscopic technique successfully identified issues and altered surgical plans in several cases.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Intraoperative colonoscopy is an endoscopic procedure performed during surgery.
  • Indications for its use have evolved over time.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the utility and indications of intraoperative colonoscopy.
  • To assess its impact on surgical strategy.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective review of 66 patients undergoing intraoperative colonoscopy between 1987 and 1991.
  • Analysis of indications, success rates, and impact on surgical planning.

Main Results:

  • Successful completion in 61/66 patients.
  • Key indications included air leakage tests (53%) and prior polypectomy sites (20%).

  • Surgical plans were altered in 10/61 fully examined patients, notably for detecting subclinical anastomotic leaks.

    • Conclusions:

    • Intraoperative colonoscopy is a valuable tool in surgical decision-making.
    • Its expanded indications, including leak detection, enhance its utility in complex gastrointestinal cases.
