Abstract:
The standard treatment for colorectal cancer still have not been unified,especially the treatment for patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (T3 or T4 stage) is controversial,and multidisciplinary comprehensive treatment is recommended by most of the scholars.Precise preoperative diagnosis and staging for locally advanced rectal cancer is very important.Currently,transrectal ultrasound (TRUS),multi-slice spiral computed tomography,magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are playing important roles in the preoperative diagnosis and staging,while controversies on the efficacies of different imaging diagnosis on the evaluation of rectal cancer exist between domestic and overseas scholars.From October 2010 to October 2012,the imaging data of 30 patients with locally advanced rectal cancer who were admitted to the Tumor Hospital of Yunnan Province were retrospectively analyzed.The results showed that TRUS,computed tumography and MRI had guidance value in preoperative tumor staging and evaluation of neoadjuvant therapy for patients with locally advanced rectal cancer,which provide a more reliable basis for the selection of appropriate treatment programs.
