| Sumario: | The incidence of complications after colonoscopy is low and has been reported to range of 0.01–0.9%. Of these complications, colocolonic intussusception after colonoscopy is exceedingly rare, with around 12 known cases described in the literature. This case report details the presentation and operative management of a patient who developed an ischemic stoma due to a colocolonic intussusception of an end colostomy after a colonoscopy. Intraoperative surgical exploration revealed a colocolonic intussusception involving the end colostomy. This is the first known documented occurrence of this phenomenon. |
