A 56-year-old male patient with a personal history of colonic polyps presents to the outpatient surgery department for a colonoscopy to rule out colon cancer. The patient has been experiencing rectal bleeding for approximately six weeks and has lost a significant amount of weight. A colonoscopy to the terminal ileum is performed.
