Abstract

Enemas are widely used in patients with poor colon cleansing in preparation for colonoscopy. Although they are regarded as having minimal side-effects, enemas can give rise to severe side-effects due to the chemical substances they sometimes contain. We report a case of ischemic colitis emerging in association with enema use during preparation for colonoscopy in a 45-year-old woman who was performed rectal resection due to ischemia-related stricture
