Rectal cancer treatment
Tratamiento del cáncer de recto
Resumen:
Mortality from rectal cancer continues to be a matter of concern and health impact. Worldwide, colorectal cancer is in 3rd place in terms of incidence. In the United States, for the year 2015, 93,090 new cases of colon cancer and 36,610 of the rectum are calculated. In France, the incidence of rectal cancer currently oscillates at 15,000 new cases per year.1 In Uruguay, the National Cancer Registry of the Honorary Commission for the Fight against Cancer 2014, publishes the results of cancer incidence in Uruguay in the period 2007-2011.2 The incidence of colorectal cancer in men showed incidence figures of 38.07 with a mortality of 19.23 (3rd place behind prostate and lung) and in women an incidence of 27.28 with a mortality of 12.73 ( 2nd place, behind breast) per 100.00 inhabitants respectively. The estimate made for the year 2030 marks an increase in incidence close to 25% for both sexes (according to figures from Globocan WHO). This marks a worrying health reality and demands a joint effort and active policies with a view to improving results. Rectal cancer treatment has undergone major changes in the last 30 years. The introduction of total mesorectal excision (TME) in 1982 by R. Heald, associated with the important advances in the field of oncology and radiotherapy have modified the evolution of these patients. The introduction of laparoscopic surgery, new surgical techniques that make it possible to push the limit of sphincter preservation increasingly distal, and the expectations posed by robotic surgery, make distal rectal cancer a current topic. The Advances in associated disciplines such as imaging have allowed precise selection and optimization of treatments.
La mortalidad por cáncer de recto sigue siendo un tema de preocupación e impacto sanitario. A nivel mundial el cáncer colorrectal se encuentra en el 3er lugar en cuanto a incidencia. En Estados Unidos se calculan para el año 2015, 93.090 casos nuevos de cáncer de colon y 36.610 de recto. En Francia, la incidencia de cáncer de recto, oscila actualmente en los 15.000 casos nuevos poraño.1 En el Uruguay, el Registro Nacional de Cáncer de la Comisión Honoraria de la Lucha contra elCáncer de 2014, publica los resultados de incidencia del cáncer en el Uruguay en el período 2007-2011.2 La incidencia del cáncer colorrectal en el hombre mostró cifras de incidencia de 38,07 con una mortalidad de 19,23 (3er lugar detrás de próstata y pulmón) y en la mujer una incidencia de 27,28 con una mortalidad de 12,73 (2º lugar, detrás de mama) por 100.00 habitantes respectivamente. La estimación realizada para el año 2030 marca un aumento en la incidencia próximo al 25%para ambos sexos (según cifras de Globocan OMS). Esto marca una realidad sanitaria preocupante y demanda un esfuerzo conjunto y políticas activas con vistas a mejorar los resultados. El tratamiento del cáncer de recto ha sufrido importantes cambios en los últimos 30 años. La introducción de la escisión total mesorrectal (TME) en 1982 por R. Heald, asociado a losimportantes avances en el campo de la oncología y la radioterapia han modificado la evolución de estos pacientes. La introducción de la cirugía laparoscópica, nuevas técnicas quirúrgicas que permiten llevar el límite de la preservación esfinteriana cada vez más distal, y las expectativas que plantea la cirugía robótica, hacen del cáncer de recto distal, un tema de actualidad. Losavances en las disciplinas asociadas como la imagenología han permitido una selección precisa y la optimización de los tratamientos.
