What is an anoscopy?
Anoscopy is a short and simple proctological diagnostic procedure that enables an examination of the interior of the anal canal and the final part of the rectum using a special instrument called an anoscope. This instrument allows the physician to directly examine the mucosa and detect any changes that may be the cause of various complaints.
Anoscopy is a reliable method for diagnosing diseases of the final part of the digestive system and is often used in the assessment of changes such as hemorrhoids, anal fissures, inflammatory changes, polyps, bleeding, and other abnormalities in the anal region. The examination is quick, safe, and generally well tolerated.
During anoscopy, the physician can assess in detail the condition of the anal canal mucosa and, if necessary, may recommend additional examinations or appropriate treatment. Timely diagnosis enables early detection of changes and prevention of the development of more serious problems.
Anoscopy is most often recommended in cases of:
- the presence of blood in the stool or bleeding from the anal region,
- pain, burning, or itching around the anus,
- the appearance of hemorrhoids or suspicion of them,
- a feeling of discomfort during bowel movements,
- the appearance of changes in the anal canal,
- the need for follow-up after previously diagnosed problems.
At Poliklinika Beograd, anoscopy is performed by experienced specialist physicians using modern diagnostic methods, with the aim of making the examination precise, safe, and tailored to the needs of every patient. After the examination, the physician explains the findings and provides recommendations for further treatment, follow-up examinations, or additional diagnostics if necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions
Anoscopy is a short and simple proctological diagnostic procedure that uses a special instrument – the anoscope – to examine the interior of the anal canal and the final section of the rectum. The examination allows the physician to directly assess the condition of the mucous membrane and to detect any changes that may be causing the complaints.
Anoscopy is recommended for symptoms such as bleeding from the anal area, pain, burning, itching, a feeling of discomfort, the appearance of hemorrhoids, a suspicion of anal fissures, polyps, or other changes in the final section of the digestive system.
During the examination, the physician carefully inserts the anoscope through the anal opening in order to examine the mucous membrane of the anal canal and the lower part of the rectum. The examination provides a clear view of any changes and helps the physician establish a precise diagnosis and recommend appropriate treatment.
Preparation for anoscopy is simple and depends on the physician's recommendation. In some cases it may be necessary to first empty the final section of the intestine so that the examination is of the highest possible quality. The patient receives detailed instructions before the procedure itself.
Anoscopy is generally well tolerated and takes a short time. The patient may feel mild discomfort or pressure during the examination, but the procedure is performed carefully so that any unpleasantness is kept to a minimum.
The examination itself usually takes only a few minutes. Once it is completed, the physician can immediately explain the findings and provide recommendations for further treatment, follow-up, or any additional examinations.
Anoscopy can reveal various changes in the anal canal, including internal hemorrhoids, anal fissures, inflammatory changes, polyps, sources of bleeding, and other changes in the mucous membrane.
If, during the examination, the physician notices a change that requires further analysis, additional procedures may be recommended, including taking a tissue sample (biopsy). The decision depends on the findings and the physician's assessment.
Anoscopy allows examination of the anal canal and the lowest part of the rectum, while rectoscopy allows a more detailed examination of a larger part of the final section of the large intestine. The physician determines the most suitable method depending on the symptoms and the diagnostic needs.
The need for follow-up examinations depends on the results of the examination, the changes present, and the patient's health condition. After anoscopy, the physician provides recommendations for further monitoring, therapy, or additional diagnostics if needed.
