Özet

Colonoscopy is commonly performed for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes and has a relatively low morbidityrate. Nevertheless, it is necessary for operators to be aware of the rare complications of colonoscopy due to a largenumber of procedures performed in daily practice. Acute appendicitis is an unusually rare occurrence after colonoscopy, with no clear association being found between the colonoscopy and acute appendicitis. A rapid diagnosisof this complication is possible by widespread awareness in surgeons regarding this condition. Acute appendicitiscannot be reliably resulted in as the cause of acute abdominal pain due to relatively subtle signs, symptoms, andstudies performed for bowel perforation. The diagnosis of postcolonoscopy appendicitis is difficult, and strategiesfor its treatment show significant variation. This report presents a patient having undergone urgent laparotomywithin 12 h after colonoscopy on having signs and symptoms of acute appendicitis-induced peritonitis.
