Splenic injury after colonoscopy is rare. Only 15 cases previously have been reported in the English literature. Partial capsular avulsion is the proposed mechanism of injury. Any condition causing increased splenocolic adhesions may be a predisposing factor to splenic injury. Two cases of splenic injury following colonoscopy are reported in addition to a complete review of the literature. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
