Background and objectives
This study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of preoperative radiotherapy (RT) combined with bolus infusional 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) or oral capecitabine in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC).Materials and methods
Seventy-four patients were retrospectively analyzed. Twenty-seven patients were treated with 5-FU (350?mg/m2 IV bolus) and leucovorin (20?mg/m2 IV bolus) for 5?days/week during week 1 and 5 of RT. Forty-seven patients were treated with capecitabine (850?mg/m2, twice daily for 5?days/week). Both groups received the same RT course (45–50.4?Gy/25 fractions, 5?days/week, for 5?weeks). Patients underwent surgery in 6?weeks after completion of the chemoradiotherapy. Data of the observational study were collected.Results
Grade 3 or 4 toxicities occurred in 40.7% (5-FU) and 19.1% (capecitabine) of the patients (P?=?0.044). Six patients in the 5-FU group (22.2%) and six patients in the capecitabine group (14%) achieved complete response. Primary tumor (T) downstaging were achieved in 51.9% (5-FU) and 69.8% (capecitabine) of the patients. The pathological ypT0-2 stage was 40.7% (5-FU) and 67.4% (capecitabine) (P?=?0.028).Conclusions
In consideration of the better ypT0-2 downstaging rate, less severe toxicities, and no need for indwelling intravenous device on oral capecitabine regimen, the administration of oral capecitabine with RT may be a more favorable option in the neoadjuvant treatment for LARC. 相似文献2.

Background
The treatment outcomes of patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) have been poorly documented.Patients and methods
We investigated 50 patients with synchronous and metachronous ESCC and HNSCC. We focused on the treatment results of 20 patients with synchronous ESCC and HNSCC who received simultaneous chemoradiotherapy (CRT).Results
There were 34 patients (68.0?%) with stage 0?CI ESCC and 40 patients (80.0?%) with stage II?CIV HNSCC. A total of 13 (26.0?%) patients underwent endoscopic mucosal resection and 28 (56.0?%) underwent CRT for ESCC, and 35 (70.0?%) of the patients with HNSCC were treated with CRT. The 5-year overall survival rates of the 50 patients with synchronous and metachronous ESCC and HNSCC was 57.8?%. For the 20 patients with synchronous ESCC and HNSCC who received simultaneous CRT, the CRT was completed in 19 (95.0?%) patients. Although grade 3?C4 adverse events were observed in five (25.0?%) patients, there were no therapy-related deaths. Complete responses (CRs) of both ESCC and HNSCC were observed in ten (50.0?%) patients. The 5-year overall survival rate of the 20 patients was 60.0?%. CRs of both ESCC and HNSCC were obtained in seven (58.3?%) patients by using a cisplatin/5-FU regimen (n?=?12), and in the other three (37.5?%) patients by a platinum-based monotherapy regimen (n?=?8).Conclusion
The surveillance of double cancer and the use of radical treatment contributed to the favorable outcome of the patients with ESCC and HNSCC. The optimal chemotherapy regimen for simultaneous CRT remains to be determined. 相似文献3.

Purpose
Extralevator abdominoperineal excision of the rectum (elAPER) is arguably the modern surgical approach to low rectal cancer and yet results in large defects that may necessitate plastic surgical reconstruction. This study aims to evaluate the quality of prone elAPER surgery with Permacol? repair of the perineum. The primary end point studied was the rate of primary perineal wound healing.Methods
Data were prospectively collected for consecutive patients having prone elAPER at a single institution to assess surgical morbidity together with pathological and cancer-specific outcomes.Results
Between 2006 and 2012, 48 patients had prone elAPER with median age of 63 (40–86). Thirty-four patients (72.3 %) received neoadjuvant treatment. Median length of stay was 9 days (6–66). With a prone approach, three patients had specimen perforation (6.4 %) and seven patients had circumferential margin involvement (14.9 %). Complete perineal wound healing was achieved in 34 patients (73.9 %) at 4 weeks. Four patients (8.3 %) were unhealed at 6 months; one patient required a perineal sinus to be laid open, and another patient required plastic surgical reconstruction. No perineal wound herniae have been identified during follow-up.Conclusions
Acceptable oncological outcomes are achieved with the prone extralevator approach. The technique achieves high rates of primary healing, making it an attractive option in centres without access to plastic reconstructive expertise. 相似文献4.

Background/Purpose
It has been reported recently that adjuvant gemcitabine prolonged postoperative disease-free survival in patients with resectable pancreatic cancer. However, the efficacy was limited and further studies are required to improve the prognosis. In particular, postoperative hepatic recurrence often occurs even after gemcitabine treatment.Methods
We are currently trying to evaluate the efficacy of postoperative combination therapy of high-dose 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) arterial infusion with systemic gemcitabine. Patients received weekly high-dose 5-FU through the hepatic artery using a port-catheter system (1000?mg/m2 for 5?h) plus concurrent systemic gemcitabine (1000?mg/m2).Results
Thirty-one patients were enrolled and 29 patients (94%) completed the scheduled adjuvant chemotherapy. The toxicity was acceptable and this regimen was well feasible as an outpatient treatment. At the time of analysis, 21 patients (68%) had recurrence. Local recurrence was most frequently observed, in 43% of the patients with recurrence. On the other hand, hepatic recurrence developed in only 2 patients (10%). The 1-year disease-free rate and overall survival rate were 62.9 and 100%, respectively.Conclusion
Our novel adjuvant strategy had a significant beneficial effect on early hepatic recurrence and may have the potential to prolong the overall survival of pancreatic cancer patients. 相似文献5.

Purpose
This trial was undertaken to compare the rates of resectability between patients treated with neoadjuvant concurrent chemoradiation vs. boosted radiotherapy alone.Materials and methods
Patients with clinically unresectable rectal cancer were randomized to receive external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) to pelvis (45 Gy) with concurrent oral Capecitabine (CRT group; Arm 1) or EBRT to pelvis (45 Gy) alone followed by 20 Gy dose of localized radiotherapy boost to the primary tumor site (RT with boost group, Arm 2). All patients were assessed for resectability after 6 weeks by clinical examination and by CT scan and those deemed resectable underwent surgery.Results
A total of 90 patients were randomized, 46 to Arm 1 and 44 to Arm 2. Eighty seven patients (44 in Arm 1 and 41 in Arm 2) completed the prescribed treatment protocol. Overall resectability rate was low in both the groups; R0 resection was achieved in 20 (43 %) patients in Arm 1 vs. 15 (34 %) in Arm 2. Adverse factors that significantly affected the resectability rate in both the groups were extension of tumor to pelvic bones and signet ring cell pathology. Complete pathological response was seen in 7 and 11 %, respectively. There was greater morbidity such as wound infection and delayed wound healing in Arm 2 (16 vs. 40 %; p = 0.03).Conclusion
Escalated radiation dose without chemotherapy does not achieve higher complete (R0) tumor resectability in locally advanced inoperable rectal cancers, compared to concurrent chemoradiation. 相似文献6.

Purpose
Laterally spreading tumors (LST) have been recognized worldwide. The aim of our retrospective study was to evaluate the clinicopathological differences of LST arising in the colon and rectum.Methods
We investigated the clinical records of consecutive patients with LST that were endoscopically or surgically resected at our hospital between February 2006 and March 2011. LST were classified into three types: granular-homogenous (LST-GH), granular-nodular mixed (LST-GM), and nongranular (LST-NG) types. We also defined the hardly elevated flat lesion with a dilated pit pattern that occurs at the margins of LST as the “skirt.” The clinicopathological characteristics of the LST arising in the colon and rectum, including the presence of the skirt, were compared.Results
A total of 496 colorectal LST in 435 patients were examined. LST-GM was predominant in the rectum, whereas LST-NG was predominant in the colon (p?0.001). The mean tumor size was larger in the rectum (39.3?±?17.9 mm) than the colon (25.8?±?13.6 mm) (p?0.001). Low-grade dysplasia frequency was lower in the rectum than the colon (4 vs. 37 %, p?0.001). The skirt was identified in 15 lesions (3.0 %), with a higher incidence in the rectum than the colon (17 vs. 0.5 %, p?0.001). The skirt was found only in LST-GM.Conclusions
A greater proportion of LST-GM, greater mean size, and lower incidence of low-grade dysplasia were found in rectal LST. The skirt was a novel and unique finding, primarily observed in rectal LST-GM cases. 相似文献7.

Background
Pathologic complete response has been proven to have oncological benefits for locally advanced rectal cancer treated with chemoradiation therapy. The aims of this study are to analyze and determine the factors to predict pathologic complete response for patients treated with preoperative neoadjuvant therapy.Methods
Patients with biopsy-proven, locally advanced rectal cancer were treated neoadjuvantly followed by radical surgical resection. Tumors were re-assessed after completing chemoradiation, including pelvic magnetic resonance images, colonoscopic examination, and re-biopsy. The results of examination were compared with the final pathologic status.Results
A retrospective chart review of 166 patients was conducted. Twenty-five patients (15.1%) had pathologic complete response after chemoradiation. The 5-year overall survival rates were better in the complete response group than the residual tumor group (91.1% vs. 70.8%; P?=?0.047), and there were also significant differences in the 5-year disease-free survival rates between these two groups (91.1% vs. 70.2%; P?=?0.027). The prediction rates for pathologic complete response by re-biopsy, magnetic resonance images, and colonoscopy were 21.4%, 33.3%, and 53.8%, respectively. In addition, when we further combine the results of colonoscopic findings and re-biopsy, the prediction rate for pathologic complete response reached 77.8% (P?=?0.009).Conclusions
Combining the results of the re-biopsy and post-treatment colonoscopic findings, we can achieve a good prediction rate for pathologic complete response. Post-treatment magnetic resonance images are not useful tools in predicting tumor clearance following chemoradiation. 相似文献8.

Purpose
In a phase I/II trial, patients with locally advanced rectal cancer received preoperative radiotherapy (RT) and concurrent with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and gefitinib. Results were promising. To elucidate the molecular and biological effects, we replicated the schedule in the LoVo human colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line.Methods
RT (2 Gy daily for 3 days), 5-FU (0.3, 0.6, 1.25, 2.5, 5, 10 μM) and gefitinib (0.2, 0.4, 0.8 μM) were administered alone, in double combinations and all together. We assessed viable cells, cell cycle, cyclin, p53 and p21 expression, signalling pathways by means of phosphorylated epidermal growth factor receptor (p-EGFR), p-AKT and p-ERK 1-2 and clonogenic capacity.Results
RT and 5-FU were cytotoxic. Gefitinib was cytostatic. RT reduced clonogenic capacity more than 5-FU. 5-FU induced more cell death than RT, but surviving cells were proliferative (cyclins and p-EGFR increased). 5-FU?+?RT had a synergistic effect. Gefitinib, enhancing G1 accumulation, reduced proliferation of cells surviving 5-FU and 5-FU?+?RT. It slightly increased the cytotoxicity of RT and 5-FU.Conclusions
As gefitinib limited the proliferation rate of cells surviving 5-FU and 5-FU?+?RT in the LoVo cell line, it may be a useful addition to chemotherapy and RT in rectal cancer patients. 相似文献9.

Background
Neoadjuvant treatment strategies have been developed to improve survival of patients with advanced rectal cancer. Since mainly patients with major histopathological response benefit from this therapy, predictive and prognostic markers are needed. We examined the association of ??-catenin and Her2/neu protein expression with histopathologic response to neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy and prognosis in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer.Methods
Fifty-four patients (33 male; 21 female; median age 60.4?years) with locally advanced rectal cancer were included in this study. All patients received a neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy (50.4?Gy, 5-FU) followed by surgical resection. Histomorphologic regression was evaluated by Dworak and Cologne staging system. Major response was defined by Dworak classification when resected specimens contained less than 50% vital tumor cells (n?=?14) and by Cologne grading system when resected specimens contained less than 10% vital tumor cells (n?=?15). Intratumoral ??-catenin (nuclear/membranous) and Her2/neu (cytoplasmatic/membranous) expression was determined by immunohistochemistry in pre- and post-therapeutic specimens and correlated with clinicopathologic parameters.Results
A significant association was detected between pre-therapeutic membranous ??-catenin levels and response: patients with a lower ??-catenin protein expression showed significantly more often a major response compared with patients having high intratumoral protein levels (p?=?0.011). In addition, patients with a higher Her2/neu protein expression showed a significant survival benefit compared with patients having low intratumoral protein levels (5-year survival rate: 81% vs. low 41%; p?=?0.023).Conclusions
The pre-therapeutic ??-catenin and Her2/neu protein expression seem to be valuable predictive and prognostic markers in the multimodality treatment of advanced rectal cancer. 相似文献10.

Purpose
Although well described, there is limited published data related to management on the coexistence of prostate and rectal cancer. The aim of this study was to describe a single institution’s experience with this and propose a treatment algorithm based on the best available evidence.Methods
From 2000 to 2011, a retrospective review of institutional databases was performed to identify patients with synchronous prostate and rectal cancers where the rectal cancer lay in the lower two thirds of the rectum. Operative and non-operative outcomes were analysed and a management algorithm is proposed.Results
Twelve patients with prostate and rectal cancer were identified. Three were metachronous diagnoses (>3-month time interval) and nine were synchronous diagnoses. In the synchronous group, four had metastatic disease at presentation and were treated symptomatically, while five were treated with curative intent. Treatment included pelvic radiotherapy (74?Gy) followed by pelvic exenteration (three) and watchful waiting for rectal cancer (one). The remaining patient had a prostatectomy, long-course chemoradiotherapy and anterior resection. There were no operative mortalities and acceptable morbidity. Three remain alive with two patients disease-free.Conclusions
Synchronous detection of prostate cancer and cancer of the lower two thirds of the rectum is uncommon, but likely to increase with rigorous preoperative staging of rectal cancer and increased awareness of the potential for synchronous disease. Treatment must be individualized based on the stage of the individual cancers taking into account the options for both cancers including EBRT (both), surgery (both), hormonal therapy (prostate), surgery (both) and watchful waiting (both). 相似文献11.

Purpose
Management of rectal bleeding in patients with radiation proctitis presents a conundrum for practitioners. Surgeons are appropriately concerned about using conventional methods of treatment in these patients, such as cautery for bleeding areas in the rectum, rubber band ligation, or excision of internal and/or external hemorrhoids, for fear of poor healing and possible exacerbation of the original problem. Few randomized controlled trials are available on the treatment of radiation proctitis alone, and no literature exists pertaining to the management of symptomatic hemorrhoids in the radiated patient.Methods
In the absence of observational studies, the authors created an email survey to distribute to the membership of the American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons in order to try to identify current management practices for radiation proctitis and for the treatment of their symptomatic hemorrhoids.Results
Of the 327 respondents, 85?% favored the use of topical formalin to treat radiation proctitis, while 42?% additionally used argon plasma coagulation. Only 25?% of practitioners report using sucralfate, though existing data on this therapy are promising. Regarding the management of hemorrhoids in patients with a history of rectal irradiation, 55?% of respondents hoped treatment of radiation proctitis alone would solve the problem. Forty-three percent reported using rubber band ligation, 30?% using hemorrhoidectomy, and 18?% using sclerotherapy.Conclusions
While most respondents treated radiation proctitis alone in patients with symptomatic hemorrhoids, many also felt rubber band ligation, hemorrhoidectomy, and sclerotherapy are safe and effective alternative therapies in this population. 相似文献12.

Background/Purpose
The prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with tumor thrombosis of the main trunk or major branches of the portal vein (mPVTT) is extremely poor, even if it is curatively resected. Uncontrollable multiple metastases to the residual liver are often observed within several months after the operation. We report here the results of a pilot study, showing the efficacy of adjuvant arterial infusion chemotherapy after the resection of HCC with mPVTT.Methods
Twelve patients had curative resection of HCC with mPVTT. Six of the patients were treated by the arterial infusion of a chemotherapeutic agent via a subcutaneously implanted injection port after curative resection of HCC with mPVTT. The initial course consisted of the daily administration of cisplatin (CDDP) and continuous infusion of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). This was followed by the weekly or biweekly administration of CDDP and subsequent infusion of 5-FU until the cumulative dose of 5-FU reached 15?g.Results
The median overall survival time was 58.0 months with adjuvant chemotherapy and 8.0 months without adjuvant chemotherapy. The median disease-free interval was 15.0 months with adjuvant chemotherapy and 4.0 months without adjuvant chemotherapy. Adverse reactions were tolerable nausea and loss of appetite.Conclusions
This chemotherapeutic regimen achieved favorable results and may be useful as adjuvant chemotherapy in treating patients after curative resection of HCC with mPVTT. 相似文献13.

Background
Acute pancreatitis is a common complication of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Rectal nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (specifically, 100?mg of diclofenac or indomethacin) have shown promising prophylactic activity in post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP). However, the 100-mg dose is higher than that ordinarily used in Japan.Methods
We performed a prospective randomized controlled study to evaluate the efficacy of low-dose rectal diclofenac for the prevention of PEP. Patients who were scheduled to undergo ERCP were randomized to receive a saline infusion either with 50?mg of rectal diclofenac (diclofenac group) or without (control group) 30?min before ERCP. The dose of diclofenac was reduced to 25?mg in patients weighing <50?kg. The primary outcome measure was the occurrence of PEP.Results
Enrollment was terminated early because the planned interim analysis found a statistically significant intergroup difference in the occurrence of PEP. A total of 104 patients were eligible for this study; 51 patients received rectal diclofenac. Twelve patients (11.5%) developed PEP: 3.9% (2/51) in the diclofenac group and 18.9% (10/53) in the control group (p?=?0.017). After ERCP, the incidence of hyperamylasemia was not significantly different between the two groups. Post-ERCP pain was significantly more frequent in the control group than in the diclofenac group (37.7 vs. 7.8%, respectively; p?0.001). There were no adverse events related to diclofenac.Conclusions
Low-dose rectal diclofenac can prevent PEP. 相似文献14.

Purpose
Neoadjuvant chemoradiation (NCRT) may be avoided in some patients with T3-staged rectal cancer undergoing radical resection. We aimed to evaluate the accuracy of endorectal ultrasound (ERUS) in the nodal staging of uT3 tumors and hence the decision for administration of NCRT.Methods
Patients with uT3-staged rectal cancer who underwent proctectomy were retrospectively identified. The accuracy of ERUS for detecting nodal involvement was determined for patients who did not undergo NCRT. In order to evaluate the impact of use of NCRT, oncologic outcomes, functional outcomes, and quality of life (QOL) were compared for patients who received NCRT (group A) and those who did not (group B).Results
For 384 patients who were included, ERUS overstaging rate for nodal involvement was 6.3 % while understaging rate was 23.2 %. For the 289 patients in group A and 95 in group B, Kaplan–Meier analysis showed similar 5-year local recurrence rates (3.5 %), overall survival (76.9 vs 75.6 %), and disease-free survival (87.9 vs 88.1 %). Node positivity on final pathology was however associated with worse 5-year local recurrence (9.3 vs 4.3 %). For patients undergoing restorative resection, NCRT was associated with worse functional outcomes but QOL was similar.Conclusions
ERUS identification of nodal involvement used as a criterion for NCRT carries a greater risk for undertreatment than overtreatment. Undertreatment adversely affects oncologic outcomes. While there is functional impairment related to NCRT, its effect on QOL is non-significant. The decision for omitting neoadjuvant chemoradiation for uT3 rectal cancer should hence not be based on ERUS nodal staging alone. 相似文献15.

Background
Treatment of shigellosis in rabbits with butyrate reduces clinical severity and counteracts the downregulation of cathelicidin (CAP-18) in the large intestinal epithelia. Here, we aimed to evaluate whether butyrate can be used as an adjunct to antibiotics in the treatment of shigellosis in patients.Methods
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group designed clinical trial was conducted. Eighty adult patients with shigellosis were randomized to either the Intervention group (butyrate, n?=?40) or the Placebo group (normal saline, n?=?40). The Intervention group was given an enema containing sodium butyrate (80?mM), twice daily for 3?days, while the Placebo group received the same dose of normal saline. The primary endpoint of the trial was to assess the efficacy of butyrate in improving clinical, endoscopic and histological features of shigellosis. The secondary endpoint was to study the effect of butyrate on the induction of antimicrobial peptides in the rectum. Clinical outcomes were assessed and concentrations of antimicrobial peptides (LL-37, human beta defensin1 [HBD-1] and human beta defensin 3 [HBD-3]) and pro-inflammatory cytokines (interleukin-1?? [IL-1??] and interleukin-8 [IL-8]) were measured in the stool. Sigmoidoscopic and histopathological analyses, and immunostaining of LL-37 in the rectal mucosa were performed in a subgroup of patients.Results
Compared with placebo, butyrate therapy led to the early reduction of macrophages, pus cells, IL-8 and IL-1?? in the stool and improvement in rectal histopathology. Butyrate treatment induced LL-37 expression in the rectal epithelia. Stool concentration of LL-37 remained significantly higher in the Intervention group on days 4 and 7.Conclusion
Adjunct therapy with butyrate during shigellosis led to early reduction of inflammation and enhanced LL-37 expression in the rectal epithelia with prolonged release of LL-37 in the stool.Trial Registration

Purpose
Women may develop constipation after hysterectomy. The pathophysiology and underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. They may originate from either neural damage of rectum and colon or changes in anatomical constellation of the remaining pelvic organs. The aim of this study is to evaluate sensory and motor functions of rectum and colon in women with newly developed constipation after hysterectomy in comparison with women without constipation and healthy controls after hysterectomy .Methods
Barostat measurements were performed in posthysterectomy women with constipation (PH-C), without constipation (PH-NC), and healthy controls (n?=?10, every group). Outcome measures were rectal and colonic compliance (millilitre per millimetre of mercury), rectocolonic perception in reaction to mechanical distension (millimetre; VAS scores) and rectocolonic reflex (millilitre per millimetre of mercury).Results
No differences in rectal or colonic compliance were observed. Urge perception due to rectal distension increased significantly in controls (from 7?±?5 to 41?±?10 mm; p?<?0.05) and PH-NC group (from 3?±?1 to 24?±?9 mm; p?<?0.05), but not in PH-C patients (1?±?1 to 11?±?5 mm; ns). In healthy controls and the PN-NC group, respectively, 100 and 70 % of subjects reached the minimal threshold value for urge of 10 mm during the isobaric distension sequence. In the PH-C group, only two subjects (20 %) reached this threshold (p?<?0.05). Rectal pain perception, phasic colonic motility and the rectocolonic reflex were intact in all three groups.Conclusions
Colorectal motor and sensory function is generally well preserved in women with constipation after hysterectomy. It is unlikely that the symptom of constipation after hysterectomy has been caused by iatrogenic neuronal damage in these patients. 相似文献17.

Objective
The objective of this study is to identify rates and factors associated with permanent diversion following restorative proctosigmoidectomy for rectal cancer when complicated by an anastomotic leak.Design
This study is a retrospective review.Setting
The setting of this study is a tertiary referral hospitalPatients
Patients involved in this study were those who underwent restorative rectal cancer surgery from 1997 through 2008 identified from an institutional cancer database.Interventions
No interventions were performed in this study.Main outcome measures
Factors associated with time to ostomy closure and rates of permanent diversion following anastomotic leaksResults
One hundred and thirty patients (mean age 59.7?years) were identified, 111 (85%) of whom had stoma diversion at the index surgery. Asymptomatic occult radiological leaks occurred in 52 patients (40%). Seventy-eight patients (60%) underwent ultimate ostomy closure at a median time of 6.3?months after the index surgery, which was not significantly affected by previous radiotherapy (p?=?0.08). Twelve patients (9%) underwent anastomotic reconstruction. Pathologic stage II or greater (OR 4.42; 1.95–10.04), symptomatic presentation (OR 4.13; 1.86–9.19) and anastomotic disruption >5?mm (OR 4.42; 2.01–9.74) were independently associated with permanent diversion. Among all survivors, 33% did not have their ostomy reversed. Stoma diversion constructed after leak detection in 19 patients (15%) did not affect permanent stoma rate (OR 0.86; 0.31–2.34) or time to stoma closure (p?=?0.29).Conclusions
The majority of anastomotic leaks after restorative rectal cancer surgery can be salvaged without anastomotic reconstruction. However, in one third of the patients, an anastomotic leak results in a permanent stoma. 相似文献19.

Background
We conducted an observational study to assess the hypothesis that the pelvic muscles actively open the anorectal lumen during defecation.Methods
Three groups of female patients were evaluated with video imaging studies of defecation using a grid or bony reference points. Eight patients with idiopathic fecal incontinence had video myogram defecography; eight with obstructive defecation had magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) defecating proctograms; and four normal patients had video X-ray or MRI defecating proctogram studies.Results
In all three groups, the anorectum was stretched bidirectionally by three directional muscle force vectors acting on the walls of the rectum, effectively doubling the diameter of the rectum during defecation. The anterior rectal wall was pulled forwards, and the posterior wall backwards and downwards opening the anorectal angle, associated with angulation of the anterior tip of the levator plate (LP). These observations are consistent with a staged relaxation of some parts of the pelvic floor during defecation, and contraction of others. First, the puborectalis muscle relaxes. Puborectalis muscle relaxation frees the posterior rectal wall so that it can be stretched and opened by contraction of the LP and conjoint longitudinal muscle of the anus. Second, contraction of the pubococcygeus muscle pulls forward the anterior rectal wall, further increasing the diameter of the rectum. Third, when the bolus has entered the rectum, the external anal sphincter relaxes, and the rectum contracts to expel the fecal bolus.Conclusions
Our results are consistent with the hypothesis that pelvic striated muscle actively opens the rectal lumen, thereby reducing internal anorectal resistance to expulsion of feces. Controlled studies of electromyographic activity would be useful to further test this hypothesis. 相似文献20.
