Abstract:
Objective:To assess the effectiveness and characteristics of intratumoral radioactive seed implantation in low rectal cancer with anal sphincter preservation.Methods:Clinical data of 8 patients (not willing or can not to undergo radical resection of rectal carcinoma) with low rectal cancer receiving radioactive seed implantation with anal sphincter preservation were retrospectively analyzed.Results:All the 8 patients successfully completed intratumoral radioactive seed implantation. Preoperative clinical symptoms of discomfort were significantly improved, and CEA levels decreased significantly. Colonoscopy and CT examination showed that tumor disappeared in 4 cases, anal function was successfully preserved in all patients. The mean survival time was 32.4 months.Conclusions:Intratumoral radioactive seed implantation in low rectal cancer with anal sphincter preservation can effectively improve the quality of life of patients.
