Abstract:
Objective To investigate the suitable treatment of post operative anastomotic recurrence after anterior resection of rectal cancer and analyze the relationship between different kinds of therapy with prognosis. Methods The clinical data of 41 cases of local recurrent rectal cancer after anterior resection admitted in our hospital from 1999 to 2009 were analyzed retrospectively. The median survival time and survival rate were calculated by Life Tables method. The influence of different kinds of treatment to prognosis was evaluated by Kaplan-Meier method and the variability was analyzed by Log-rank method. P <0.01 means statistical significance. Results Thirty-three (80.5 %) of 41 patients were recurrent in the first 3 years and the median survival time was 23 months. Seventeen (41.5 %) of 41 patients underwent radical R0 resection. The median survival time of radical resection patients and non-radical resection ones were 49 months and 18 months, respectively, and the difference was significant (χ2=12.245, P=0.000). Thirty-one patients with radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy showed a statistically longer median survival time than the other 10 patients without these adjuvant treatment (39 months and 9 months, respectively) (χ2=17.533, P =0.000). Conclusion Most post operative anastomotic recurrent of rectal cancer cases occurs in the first 3 years after primary surgery. Radical resection, radiotherapy and chemotherapy can improve the prognosis.
