Multivisceral resection for locally advanced rectal cancer: adequate length of distal resection margin
PURPOSE Locally advanced rectal cancer may require an intraoperative decision regarding curative multivisceral resection (MVR) of adjacent organs. In bulky tumor cases, ensuring sufficient distal resection margin (DRM) for achievement of oncologic safety is very difficult. This study is designed to evaluate the adequate length of DRM in multiviscerally resected rectal cancer. METHODS A total ...
متن کاملMultivisceral Resection in Rectal Cancer
The treatment of locally advanced rectal cancer (T3/4 or N1/2) is challenging and requires a multidisciplinary approach including diagnostic radiology, medical oncology, pathology, radiation therapy, and surgery. Unlike many solid tumors, locally advanced or locally invasive rectal cancer is not necessarily unresectable (Lopez 2001). Indeed, over the past 30 years, it has been shown that a sign...
متن کاملSafe distal margin resection in patients with low rectal cancer undergoing neoadjuvant chemoradiation
Background: Colorectal carcinoma is the third most common cause of death in Iran. This study was performed in order to determine the appropriate distal clearance margin (DCM) for resection of rectal cancer in patients who undergo neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for sphincter preserving procedure. Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted in Shahid Faghihi Hospital of Shira...
متن کاملAdequate length of the surgical distal resection margin in rectal cancer: from the viewpoint of pathological findings.
BACKGROUND Previous studies have not identified how to determine the optimal distal margin in rectal cancer based on histopathological diagnosis. We examined the surgical distal resection margin from a histopathological viewpoint. METHODS We enrolled 629 patients. The type of distal spread was evaluated, and the maximum length of distal spread was measured using a micrometer. RESULTS The fr...
متن کاملLocally Advanced Pancreatic Head Cancer: Margin-Positive Resection or Bypass?
Pancreatic cancer is a highly aggressive disease with poor survival. The only effective therapy offering long-term survival is complete surgical resection. In the setting of nonmetastatic disease, locally advanced tumors constitute a technical challenge to the surgeon and may result in margin-positive resection margins. Few studies have evaluated the implications of the latter in depth. The aim...
