Very common colon .: Torturous colon is common variation of shape of colon ( much more curves and twists") It can make colonosocpy technicly difficult and sometime only partial is possible and than other part has to be visualised via " barium enema - x ray" . Good news is - No polyps. Polyp can be benign and some may turn to cancer. " twisted colon" makes you prone for lots of Gas entrapment and pain and bloating .
