👉 An enterocolostomy is a procedure in which a small tube called an endoscope is inserted into the digestive tract of a patient to inspect and remove any foreign objects or substances from their intestines. This procedure can help diagnose problems like ulcers, bleeding, or infections in the colon, as well as facilitate the removal of solid foods and medications. It's often used to treat conditions such as Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, or appendicitis.
