Gas gangrene after colonoscopy.

Jamieson NF, Willoughby CP.

Gastroenterology Unit, Basildon Hospital, Nether Mayne, Basildon, Essex SS16 5NL, UK.

A case of spontaneous clostridial myonecrosis developing shortly after diagnostic colonoscopy is described. The prime underlying factor proved to be an unsuspected colonic cancer, developing in a patient with pre-existing ulcerative colitis and sclerosing cholangitis.
