Abstract

The article discusses the cases of two patients who underwent endocytoscopic (ECS) follow-up of the resection of the colon for malignant adenomas. Topics discussed include the pre-operative marking of the colonic mucosa using India ink, the failure of the ECS to visualize submucosal black staining, and pathologic examination of the tattooed areas.
