ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the indications for colonoscopy examination and the distribution of diagnostic diseases.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>From Jan. 2000 to Dec. 2004, 5960 patients received colonoscopy examination in our colorectal center. The indications for colonoscopy examination and the distribution of its diagnostic diseases were analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>There were 3096 males and 2594 females,and the mean age was (52+/-15) years. The reasons for colonoscopy included hemafecia (26.9%), atypical abdominal pain (25.8%), diarrhea or increased frequency of stool (11.1%), anal tenesmus or discomfort (7.6%), constipation (7.0%),mucous or bloody purulent stool (3.0%), intra-rectal mass or abdominal mass on physical examination (0.9%), re- examination after colonoscopic polypectomy (10.9%), re-examination after operation for colorectal cancer(1.5%), simple health examination (2.2%). Colonoscope reached the cecum in 97.7% of the cases,and at least one disease was found in 2283 cases (40.1%). Among them,colorectal cancer accounted for 10.3%, colorectal polyps 19.6%, ulcerative colitis 4.3%, and Crohn's disease 0.5% respectively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The indications for colonoscopy are too strict to screen the early stage colorectal cancer. Colonoscopy should be performed in the cases with symptoms such as bloody stool, diarrhea, abdominal pain, constipation, or with colorectal polyps, after operation for colorectal cancer,or as members of hereditary colorectal cancer family.</p>
