结肠镜检查是筛查女性结直肠癌的首选方法。对于内窥镜医师来说,更长的、更冗余的女性结肠往往更难以导航,大多数研究表明,插入时间更长,完成率更低,并且与女性手术相关的不适更多,所有这些都可能因子宫切除术而加剧。为了提高女性患者对结直肠癌筛查的依从性,我们需要了解女性参与筛查的普遍障碍。本文回顾了几项研究的结果,并讨论了改善女性癌症筛查的一些步骤。
Colonoscopy is the preferred method of screening for colorectal cancer in women. The longer, more redundant female colon is frequently more difficult for the endoscopist to navigate and most studies show longer insertion times, lower completion rates, and more discomfort associated with the procedure in women, all of which may be exacerbated by hysterectomy. To improve female patients' compliance with colorectal cancer screening we need to understand the barriers to participation prevalent among women. This article reviews the findings of several studies and discusses some steps to improve cancer screening for women.
