ABSTRACT
Objective To study the causes of local recurrence,and diagnosis and treatment outcome of recurrent colorectal cancer.Methods The clinical data of 60 patients with recurrent colorectal cancer treated during 10 years in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively.Results Among the 60 cases,40 cases(66.7 %) had recurrence within 2 years after operation.Recurrence in anastomotic stoma,perineum,abdominal incision occurred and in the abdominal cavity and pelvic cavity in 15,10,7 and 20 cases respectively,and liver metastases were found in 8 cases.All patients underwent reoperation including curative surgery for 38 patients and palliative operation for 22 patients.After radical reoperation the 1-,3-,and 5-year survival rate was 93.6 %,48.8 %,and 36.3 %,respectively,and after palliative reoperation was 54.5 %,0 %,and 0 %,respectively.Conclusions Emphasizing the application of no-tumor touch technique,resection of adequate amount of bowel,performing complete lymphadenectomy and removal of micrometastatic lesions are the major measures to prevent recurrence of rectal cancer after operation.Integrative therapy regimens,of which surgical treatment is the major component,should be considered according to the location of recurrence and the clinical staging of the recurrent cases.
