    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Endoscopic procedures
    • Surgical anatomy

    Background:

    • Digestive endoscopy has limitations in visualizing certain anatomical areas.
    • The inner anal orifice has historically been a challenging region to examine directly.
    • Previous endoscopic techniques have not fully resolved the 'blind zone' in the rectal ampulla.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and evaluate a novel endoscopic technique for direct visualization of the inner anal orifice.
    • To determine if coloscopic inversion can eliminate the 'blind zone' in the ampulla recti.
    • To assess the feasibility and effectiveness of this method in digestive endoscopy.

    Main Methods:

    • Development and application of coloscopic inversion technique.
    • Inversion of the rectal ampulla to expose the inner anal orifice.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Direct visualization and documentation of the visualized anatomy.

    • Main Results:

    • Successful direct visualization of the inner anal orifice was achieved.
    • Coloscopic inversion effectively eliminated the 'blind zone' in the ampulla recti.
    • The technique proved feasible for routine endoscopic examination.

    Conclusions:

    • Coloscopic inversion is a viable method for direct visualization of the inner anal orifice.
    • This technique significantly enhances the scope of digestive endoscopy by addressing a previously unvisualized area.
    • Further research may explore the clinical implications for diagnosis and treatment.
