Published: December 1995

A 45-year old patient admitted with confirmed calculous pancreatitis underwent the laparoscopic cholecystectomy at the 14th day of the hospitalization. 4 days after the operation he had to be reoperated due to small-bowel-obstruction caused by the herniation of the loop through the supraumbilical port. The small bowel was reduced and plasty of the operative wound was done. Postoperative course was uncomplicated and the patient was discharged from the hospital 6 days after the operation.

Introduction: Colonoscopies are routine procedures performed primarily on adults over the age of 50; however, there is little known about the influence of social determinants of health on successful completion of colonoscopies. Inadequate at-home bowel preparation can result in increased procedure duration, decreased cancer detection, and may necessitate a repeated colonoscopy, putting undue stress on the patient. Research suggests neurocognitive disorder is a risk factor for poor bowel preparation in older adults; however, lower education may confound neurocognitive findings, independently contributing to risk of incomplete colonoscopies.
