Although complications of colonoscopy are rare, they are potentially serious and life threatening. In addition, less serious adverse events may occur frequently and may have an impact on a patient's willingness to undergo future procedures. This article reviews the magnitude of and risk factors for major and minor colonoscopy complications, discusses management of complications, and suggests ways to design quality improvement programs to reduce the risk of complications.
