1. Abdominoperineal excision for distal rectal carcinoma. Oncological outcome and aspects of self-assessed quality of life
Sammanfattning : Abstract: In recent years an adjusted method of performing an abdominoperineal excision (APE) - so called extralevator APE - has been developed and internationally spread. It has been proposed to decrease intraoperative perforations and non-radical surgery and therefor improve local cancer control and decrease rates of local recurrences as compared to standard APE.

2. Perineal healing following abdominoperineal excision for rectal and anal cancer
Sammanfattning : Abdominoperineal rectal excision (APE) may be indicated for distal rectal cancer and anal cancer patients. For many patients the extralevator APE (ELAPE) technique in which a larger part of the pelvic floor is removed is commonly used currently. Most patients in whom an APE is performed have received radiotherapy (RT) preoperatively. LÄS MER
3. Rectal washout in rectal cancer surgery
Sammanfattning : BackgroundRectal washout (RW) is performed to eliminate intraluminal cancer cells and thereby reducing the risk of local recurrence (LR). The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate the importance of RW in rectal cancer surgery.MethodPaper I: Survey of the current practice of RW among Swedish colorectal units. LÄS MER

5. Colorectal cancer : Aspects of staging, treatment, recurrence and survival
Sammanfattning : Colorectal cancer is the third most common malignancy in the world, and major breakthroughs have been made regarding both surgical and oncological treatment. Still, postoperative complications, such as perineal infections after abdominoperineal resection (APR), are a major cause of morbidity, and distant recurrence rate is nearly 20%. LÄS MER
