Key Words Difficult colonoscopy; Incomplete colonoscopy; Overtube; Water immersion; Colonoscopy; Balloon enteroscopy
Core Tip In all colonoscopies, we recommend optimizing technique, with minimal insufflation, sufficient sedation, minimal looping, water immersion, and having staff apply abdominal pressure when needed. When the cecum cannot be reached despite this, we consider utilization of additional tools, including overtube or specialized endoscope (e.g., ultrathin colonoscope).
