Postural Muscles

During the surgical treatment of colorectal cancer, whether by laparoscopic or classic open method, the tissues in the abdominal cavity are traumatized. The cuts of the muscle fibers are associated with the disturbance of the tone of the postural muscles. A scar within the abdominal cavity also causes movement limitations in the form of restrictions in the mobility of the spine. The implementation of patient rehabilitation in the form of targeted physiotherapy before the procedure should be an indispensable element of the treatment of colorectal cancer. The aim of the study is to propose a therapy that uses the spine mobility test to diagnose deficits. The proposed preoperative therapy focuses mainly on improving the parameters of the spine's mobility. The paper presents examples of activities that can be used in therapy before surgery. A review of the available literature and own experience were used for the work. It can be concluded from the analyzed literature that physiotherapy in oncological patients is not very widespread and is neglected in the treatment process. Patients, by In the literature, before colorectal cancer removal surgery, they are not subjected to physical rehabilitation, which is associated with complications resulting from the course of the procedure. The process of rehabilitating patients after surgical treatment of colorectal cancer should take place in the pre-operative period. Physiotherapy should take into account the weakening of the muscle strength in the trunk and limitations of mobility caused by age. Rehabilitation should be aimed at restoring functionality.

Predictive Factors

There are presented results of surgical treatment of 347 patients with colorectal cancer. Based on the retrospective analysis a comparative study of results of surgical treatment for colorectal cancer using laparoscopic technologies and “open” access was carried out. Predictive factors that correlate with the risk of postoperative complications with laparoscopic and “open” access at the surgical stage of treatment for colorectal cancer were determined.

The objective of this review study was to analyze the relationship between skeletal muscle mass and postoperative short-term outcomes morbidity in patients with Klatskin tumor who underwent surgical treatment. Low index skeletal muscle mass had a negative impact factor on postoperative morbidity following resection of Klatskin tumor and should therefore be considered as preoperative risk assessment. The further study of body composition in oncological patients allowed revealing the group of patients with high probability of postoperative complications and this factor needed to be added to future models predictive scale of short-term outcomes with the aim of making the most rational preoperative treatment algorithm.

Abstractwas to assess patients’ awareness of the prevention and treatment of colorectal cancer.Patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer, hospitalised at the Department of General and Colorectal Surgery of the Medical University in Łódź during the period from January 2015 to April 2015, were asked to complete a questionnaire concerning their families’ medical case record, factors predisposing them to the development of colorectal cancer, the tests applied in diagnostics, and the treatment process. The questionnaire comprised 42 closed-ended questions with one correct answer. A statistical analysis of all answers was carried out.The study group consisted of 30 men and 20 women aged 27–94 years old. A strong, statistically significant negative correlation between a patient’s age and his/her awareness of the prevention and treatment of colorectal cancer was noted (p<0.001; r= −0.51). The study demonstrated a statistically significant relationship between the occurrence of neoplasms in a patient’s family (p=0.009) or, more specifically, the occurrence of colorectal cancer (p=0.008), and the awareness of the prevention programme. The women’s group was characterised by statistically significantly greater awareness of colonoscopy as a screening examination (p=0.004).Patients need more information on colorectal cancer, its risk factors, prevention, the treatment process, and postoperative care. Lack of awareness of the colorectal cancer issue can be one of the major factors contributing to the high incidence of this disease.

Abstract Most cases of peritoneal dissemination of colorectal cancers are from T3 or T4 tumors. A 61-year-old woman was admitted for examination of a positive fecal occult blood test. Colonoscopy showed an ascending colon tumor that was diagnosed as an adenocarcinoma with massive submucosal invasion. Imaging modality revealed numerous nodules throughout the abdominal cavity. Peritoneal dissemination of the ascending colon or ovarian cancer and pseudomyxoma peritonei were considered in the preoperative differential diagnoses, and laparoscopic ileocecal resection was performed. Intraperitoneal observation revealed numerous white nodules in the peritoneum, omentum and Douglas fossa. Both the nodules and tumor were diagnosed as mucinous carcinoma based on a pathology report. The tumor invasion depth was limited to muscularis propria, and no regional lymph node metastasis was detected. Peritoneal dissemination of the ascending colon cancer was considered. We report a rare case of multiple peritoneal dissemination of T2 colorectal cancer without lymph node metastases.

Purpose This study is aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of surgical treatment for nonagenarian patients with colorectal cancer. Methods This retrospective single-center study included patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer at the age of ≥90 years between 2004 and 2018. Patient demographics were compared between the operation and nonoperation groups (NOG). Perioperative outcomes, histopathological outcomes, and postoperative complications were evaluated. Overall survival was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier methods and log-rank test. Results A total of 31 patients were included (16 men and 15 women), and the median age was 91 (range: 90‐96) years. The number of patients who underwent surgery and who received nonoperative management was 20 and 11, respectively. No statistical differences in baseline demographics were observed between both groups. None of these patients were treated with perioperative chemotherapy or radiotherapy. Surgery comprised 18 (90.0%) colectomies and 2 (10.0%) transanal excisions. Short-term (≤30 days) and long-term (31‐90 days) postoperative complications occurred in 7 (35.0%) and 4 (20.0%) patients, respectively. No complications needed reoperation, such as anastomosis leakage or bleeding. No postoperative mortality occurred within 30 days: 90-day postoperative mortality occurred in two patients (10.0%), respectively. The median overall survival of the operation group was 31.6 (95% confidence interval: 26.7‐36.5) and that of NOG was 12.5 months (95% CI: 2.4‐22.6) ( P = 0.012). Conclusion Surgical treatment can be considered in carefully selected nonagenarian patients with colorectal cancer in terms of acceptable postoperative morbidity, with better overall survival than the nonsurgical treatment.

It is widely known that there have been improvements in patient care and an increased incidence of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) worldwide in recent decades. However, less well known are the phenotypic changes that have occurred; these are discussed in this review. Namely, we discuss the emergence of obesity in patients with IBD, elderly onset disease, mortality rates, colorectal cancer risk, the burden of medications and comorbidities, and the improvement in surgical treatment with a decrease in surgical rates in recent decades.
