Abstract
We report herein on a 59-year-old female patient. After a marking clip had been applied proximally to a sigmoid colon cancer lesion for scheduled laparoscopic sigmoidectomy, the patient went home. A few hours later, she had abdominal pain and was diagnosed as having perforation of the sigmoid colon. She underwent an emergency sigmoidectomy operation. In conclusion, some procedures are required to prevent the complication such as seen in the present case study.
