Özet
Colonoscopy is an interventional procedure that could be performed under sedoanalgesia and usually completed without complications. Laparotomy under general anaesthesia might be necessary for rarely seen complications like intestinal perforation or spleen rupture. Also during colonoscopy, pulmonary functions may worsen as a result of increased intraabdominal pressure due to air insufflation. In our opinion, pre-procedural evaluation by a pulmonary specialist is necessary in patients with pulmonary disease. In this chapter, pre-procedural pulmonary system evaluation for both colonoscopy and laparotomy is mentioned.
