Preoperative staging of rectal cancer: role of 3D endorectal ultrasonography.
Endorectal ultrasonography has become important part of preoperative staging of rectal cancer, providing adequate information for clinical decision-making in many cases. However, with the currently available ultrasonographic equipment and techniques, a good deal of relevant information may remain hidden. The advent of high-resolution three-dimensional endoluminal ultrasound, constructed from a ...
متن کاملPreoperative staging of rectal cancer.
Detailed preoperative staging using high resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) enables the selection of patients that require preoperative therapy for tumour regression. This information can be used to instigate neoadjuvant therapy in those patients with poor prognostic features prior to disturbing the tumour bed and potentially disseminating disease. The design of trials incorporating MR...
متن کاملPreoperative imaging staging of rectal cancer.
Carcinomas of the rectum are associated with a significant local and distant recurrence rate. Not all patients are appropriate candidates for preoperative radiation therapy. Preoperative identification of those most likely to benefit from neoadjuvant therapy is important. There is no general consensus on the role of endorectal ultrasonography, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance im...
متن کاملThe accuracy of endorectal ultrasonography in rectal cancer staging
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The incidence of rectal cancer in the European Union is about 35% of the total colorectal cancer incidence. Staging rectal cancer is important for planning treatment. It is essential for the management of rectal cancer to have adequate preoperative imaging, because accurate staging can influence the therapeutic strategy, type of resection, and candidacy for neoadjuvant thera...
متن کاملMiliary Tuberculosis Following Transrectal Ultrasonography (TRUS)-Guided Prostate Biopsy
Miliary tuberculosis (TB) after transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS)-guided prostate biopsy is an extremely rare complication. A 75-year-old patient who presented with high fever and cough following TRUS-guided prostate biopsy for his high serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level (13.104 ng/ml) was diagnosed with miliary TB after clinical, laboratory, and radiological assessments. Histopatholo...
