The most common indications for colonoscopy included blood-mixed stools (33.4%), altered bowel habits (27%), and abdominal pain (23.2%).
A total of 341 patients (mean age 46.7 years) participated, with significant histopathological findings of polyps (35%) and malignancy (13.4%).
In post-colonoscopy results, colorectal cancer was notably common in cases with per-rectal bleeding, highlighting the need for careful evaluation.
