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.
