We encountered a situation whereby the
sigmoid colon becomes linear and the colonoscope can be readily inserted through
the sigmoid colon when the colonoscope is inserted with twisting to the left in
the left semiprone position.
Therefore, our new insertion method was
devised so that the colonoscope neutral position was maintained as shown in
part A and this method was performed to determine whether the colonoscope
looping rate in the sigmoid colon can be reduced.
