Description | Purpose : To report cases of advanced rectal cancer that showed significant responses after
administration of preoperative chemoradiation therapy. Methods : 5-Fluorouracil(5-FU, 300mg//day)was administered by 24-hour continuous intravenous infusion after cancers had been decreased in size by radiation(2Gy)administered for 20 days preoperatively. All patients then underwent low anterior resection with lymph node dissection(two cases had super-low anterior resection). Results : Clinical stages of all patients were down-staged preoperatively. All of operations resulted in a curative resection of the cancer cells macroscopically. In one, histological examination revealed no residual cancer cells in the resected specimen(CR). Conclusion : Preoperative chemoradiation therapy was demonstrated as a promising regimen for patients with advanced lower rectal cancer, and should be considered to extend indications for even laparoscopic operations for advanced rectal cancer; a therapy tailor made for advanced rectal cancer. |
