Résumé

Colonoscopy is an effective procedure for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening. Perforation is a rare yet the most severe complication, identified by landmarks-double dolphin, triangle, or double-wall sign signifying air and intracolonic contents leaking into the peritoneal space. Prompt recognition and surgical intervention are imperative to avoid high mortality.
