Abstract
Although only in a few cases so far, we have succeeded in inserting a fibercolonoscope into the cecum from the anus. It will soon become possible to detect any abnormalities in the colon from the anus to the cecum ,at the same time, being capable of making direct biopsy. Key-Words Fibercolonoscopy - ileocecal valve - biopsy
