Proctoscopy

Proctoscopy is a medical procedure used to examine the rectum and lower part of the colon (the anus) for diagnostic purposes. It involves the use of a proctoscope, a specialized, rigid, hollow tube with a light and a camera, which is inserted into the rectum.

Purpose:

• Diagnosis: To identify conditions such as hemorrhoids, anal fissures, rectal tumors, and inflammation.
• Evaluation: To assess symptoms like rectal bleeding, pain, or changes in bowel habits.
• Treatment: To perform minor procedures, such as removing polyps or taking biopsies.

Benefits:

• Direct Visualization: Provides a clear view of the rectal and anal areas.
• Minimally Invasive: Typically causes minimal discomfort and has a short recovery time.
