“…Endoscopic tattooing has become the standard of care as a marker to assist in intra‐operative identification of colonic lesions and prospective follow‐up of colonic polyps 21,22 . Studies have also shown that identifying a colonic lesion location based on tattoo can be difficult in up to 30% of cases due to variations, inconsistency or suboptimal tattoo application 22–24 . Tattoing techniques vary, and colonoscopy reporting remains inconsistent 14,15,25 .…”

“…15,23,25,27 Colonoscopy reporting should clarify size of the lesion, distance from anal verge if relevant, tattoo location and technique, in order to prevent unnecessary repeat procedures, and to minimize delays in curative resection. 24 Rigid proctoscopic examination could also be added for accurate distance localisation from the anal verge because measurements with a flexible endoscope may be inaccurate. 28,29 We hope that this study has increased awareness of the need for tattooing and comprehensive documentation in order for accurate localisation of colorectal lesions.…”

“…2,4,5 With prior quantitative studies identifying repeat endoscopy rates between 29% and 40.5%, it is pertinent to determine why these procedures are being performed and how to minimize unnecessary repeat endoscopies. 3,6 Little is known with respect to perceptions, thought patterns, and shared decision-making made by gastroenterologists and surgeons who perform these procedures. Depending on the regional practice patterns, gastroenterologists may perform the majority of initial endoscopies before referring the patient to a surgeon.…”
