Current Treatment in Patients with Colorectal Cancer

Öz

Abstract:

The primary treatment of rectal cancer is curative surgical resection, but surgery alone may be sufficient in patients with very early stage. Neoadjuvant radiotherapy, applied in local advanced rectal cancers, significantly reduces local recurrence. With the addition of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, pathological complete response and local control rates are increasing. More data is needed for the delay or timing of the surgeon.

Kolorektal Kanserlerde Güncel Tedavi Yaklaşımı

Öz

Rektum kanserinin temel tedavi yöntemi küratif cerrahi rezeksiyon olmakla birlikte, sadece çok erken evredeki hastalarda tek başına cerrahi yeterli olabilmektedir. Lokal ileri evre rektum kanserlerinde uygulanan neoadjuvan radyoterapi lokal yinelemeyi anlamlı olarak azaltmaktadır. Radyoterapiye, kemoterapi eklenmesi ile patolojik tam yanıt ve lokal kontrol oranları artmaktadır. Cerrahinin geciktirilmesi veya zamanlaması konusunda ise daha fazla veriye ihtiyaç bulunmaktadır.
