Patients' informations, perceptions and reflections about rigid rectosigmoidoscopy were investigated before and after rigid rectosigmoidoscopy. 307 patients (15-84), of these patients (155 women, 152 men) were included in the study. 248 were of urban (81%) and 59 were from of rural (19%) origin. 48% of the patients graduated from high school or higher degree. Before the procedure, 36% stated that they had had enough information about the examination, 59% knew that we would perform the procedure through anus. 45% of the patients requested a pre-procedure explanation from a doctor, 16% from a nurse and for 39% of the patients it did not matter. 32% of the men and 60% of the women predicted the procedure distressing (p<0.001). Patients from rural area the procedure as more distressing when compared with the urban patients (80% vs 66% (p<0.05)). During the procedure, 36 patients (12%) stated that they would rather not have had this examination, 18 patients (6%) said that they would have never let it be done.
