Abstract:
The judgment of surgical resection margins is an important factor affecting local recurrence and distant metastasis of colorectal cancer, which is crucial to the prognosis of patients. How to select a standard and ideal surgical resection margin is a challenge for colorectal cancer surgeons. Surgical resection margins for colorectal cancer include longitudinal resection margin (LRM) and circumferential resection margin (CRM), and the distance of safe resection margins varies according to different guidelines. Surgical resection margins are mainly evaluated by preoperative imaging, operative experience, operative type, hyperspectral imaging (HPI) and fluorescence angiography (FA), and postoperative pathology. It is the constant pursuit of colorectal cancer surgeons to pay attention to the safe resection margins in colorectal cancer surgery to reduce local recurrence and distant metastasis.
