In 12 patients with radiologically-proved lesions of the colon total retrograde fibreoptic colonoscopy was performed on the unopened bowel at laparotomy. Additional polyps were found in five patients, and in four of these the polyp was not readily palpable through the bowel wall. This procedure is indicated whenever there are reasonable grounds for suspecting the presence of multiple polypi.
对12例经放射学证实有结肠病变的患者,在剖腹手术时对未打开的肠段进行了全逆行纤维结肠镜检查。5例患者发现了额外的息肉,其中4例通过肠壁不易摸到息肉。只要有合理理由怀疑存在多个息肉,就应采用此 procedure。 (注:原文中“this procedure”未明确具体是什么操作,根据前文推测可能是全逆行纤维结肠镜检查,但此处保留英文更准确)
