Abstract:
With the change of diet and lifestyle,the development of medical concepts and techniques,the spectrum of disease has changed dramatically. The standardization of gastrointestinal surgery will be the key to further improvement.Endoscopic ultrasonography,computed tomography,magnetic resonance imaging, positron emission tomography-computed tomography and laparoscopy are helpful for preoperative staging of gastrointestinal carcinoma.The standards of operation,such as D2 lymph node dissection for gastric cancer and total mesenteric excision for rectal cancer,are also very important.Creating standards for multi-disciplinary treatment of gastrointestinal diseases will be important factors for improving outcomes.
