Core Tip	We report a case of colon mucosal injury due to a colonoscope water jet malfunction. During a screening colonoscopy, a patient was found to have friable oozing colon mucosa upon water irrigation. We later found that the water jet of the colonoscope was abnormally narrow with high pressure, resulting in mucosal injury. Removal of a piece of rubber lodged at the tip of the scope normalized the water pressure. The patient’s subsequent colonoscopy showed normal colon mucosa. This is the first reported case of iatrogenic injury from a colonoscope water jet malfunction.
