Coffee enemas are often used by naturopathic practitioners to treat a number of diseases, including cancer. However, there is no supportive evidence, and its use comes with major risks. We report a case of proctocolitis in a healthy patient after coffee enema treatment. To our knowledge, only 3 other cases of this adverse effect exist in the literature.
咖啡灌肠法常被自然疗法从业者用于治疗多种疾病,包括癌症。然而,目前尚无支持性证据,且使用该方法存在重大风险。我们报告了一例健康患者在接受咖啡灌肠治疗后发生直肠结肠炎的病例。据我们所知,文献中仅另有3例这种不良反应的病例。
