Nonoperative Management for Rectal Cancer
Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America(2022)
摘要
The treatment algorithm for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) has increased in complexity over the past 10 years. Nonoperative management (NOM) for rectal cancer in patients with clinical complete response (cCR) after neoadjuvant therapy has been gaining acceptance as a potential treatment option for selected LARC patients. The current challenge is to accurately select the patients with an apparent cCR, thereby correctly identifying those would-be appropriate candidates for a NOM strategy. NOM should be part of the treatment discussion of LARC, considering increasing rates of cCR, patient preference, potential quality of life gains, and the potential avoidance of surgical morbidity.
