Sigmoidoscopy Procedure

Quick & Safe Sigmoidoscopy in Ghaziabad

Sigmoidoscopy is performed to evaluate the lower colon (sigmoid colon) and rectum. Dr. Manish C Kak typically prescribes this procedure for patients with rectal bleeding, mucus discharge, long-standing constipation, suspected colitis, or to follow up previous treatments.

Unlike a full colonoscopy, sigmoidoscopy requires minimal preparation—often just an enema. The procedure is usually done without sedation, making it quick and convenient. A thin flexible tube is inserted into the rectum, allowing Dr. Kak to inspect for inflammation, ulcers, polyps, infections, or early cancer.

Sigmoidoscopy takes 10–15 minutes, and patients can return home immediately afterward. It is a walk-in, walk-out day-care test. It is especially helpful for diagnosing ulcerative colitis, hemorrhoids, proctitis, and fissures.

In the Ghaziabad–Delhi NCR region, sigmoidoscopy is preferred for quick lower-GI evaluation due to its safety, speed, and diagnostic accuracy. At Kak Liver and Gut Center, the procedure is performed using latest-generation equipment, ensuring precise imaging and patient comfort
