Complete Rectosigmoid Prolapse in a Patient with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis
source: Gastrointestinal endoscopy
year: 2010
authors: Nakos A, Paikos D, Lazaraki G, Paganos A, Katsos I
summary/abstract:Colonoscopy in a 23-year-old woman to evaluate her for familial adenomatous polyposis syndrome revealed thousands of colonic adenomas. A few hours after the procedure, the patient had a bowel movement followed by a massive, full-thickness, rectosigmoid prolapse (A). The prolapsed segment of the colon showed no signs of ischemia. The patient was placed in the left lateral position and was sedated with 4 mg midazolam given intravenously. The prolapsed colon was manually reduced with gentle maneuvers.
