NCT ID NCT07299864

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study reviewed records of 32 adults who had a colon tear during a colonoscopy to see if non-surgical care is safe and effective. Researchers looked at survival, complications, hospital stay length, and whether surgery was needed later. The goal is to find out if some patients can avoid surgery after this type of injury.

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to

If successful, this could support non-surgical care as a safe option for certain colon tears, reducing the need for surgery.

What could go wrong

This is a small, retrospective study with only 32 patients, so results may not apply to everyone. It looks back at past data, not a controlled trial.
