  1. 16. Biological and histological factors as predictors in rectal cancer patients : A study in a clinical trial of preoperative radiotherapy

    Författare :Annica Holmqvist; Xiao-Feng Sun; Gunnar Adell; Jan-Erik Frödin; Östergötlands Läns Landsting; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Oncology; Onkologi;

    Sammanfattning : With improved surgical techniques and preoperative radiotherapy (RT) the local recurrence rate in rectal cancer patients has been reduced, however the mortality rate is still high and there is a huge variation in the response to preoperative RT in patients with the same tumour stage. To improve patient’s survival, it is of great importance to identify good prognostic and predictive factors that help us to select the best suited patients for preoperative RT in the future. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common forms of human cancer worldwide with approximately 1 million new cases detected every year. CEA is currently the only accepted CRC marker incorporated into clinical practice, where it is used for early detection of metastasis in follow-up of patients having stage II and III disease, and for monitoring response to adjuvant treatment.

    Sammanfattning : Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of most common cancer diseases worldwide. In Swedenapproximately 5,000 new cases of CRC are generated each year, which makes it the thirdmost common cancer disease among both men and women. The past decades ofimproved treatment strategies have considerably increased the five-year survival for CRCpatients. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Risk Factors of Tumour Recurrence and Reduced Survival in Rectal Cancer

    Författare :Fredrik Jörgren; Kirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Tumour Marker; Ezrin; Intestinal Perforation; Neoplasm Recurrence; Rectal Neoplasms; Local; Neoplasm Metastasis; Survival Rate; Risk Factors; Surgical; Anastomosis;

    Sammanfattning : In Sweden, 2000 patients are diagnosed with rectal cancer annually. In 1995, the Swedish Rectal Cancer Registry (SRCR) was launched to supervise and assure the quality of the management of rectal cancer. Advances in the management of rectal cancer have reduced the local recurrence (LR) rate and improved survival. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : The incidence and death rate for colorectal cancer (CRC) decreased during the last decades as a result of improved diagnosis and treatment. However, CRC is still the third most common cancer in the world, and is responsible for about 700 000 deaths per year worldwide. LÄS MER
