Surgery for recurrent rectal cancer: technical notes and management of complications.
Local recurrence following surgery for rectal cancer remains a significant clinical problem and poses major therapeutic challenges. Radical surgical salvage is the only option with potential for curative treatment and is indicated in carefully selected patients. Surgery also provides acceptable palliation in certain cases. Nevertheless, such surgery is challenging, not commonly used, and historically associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. In more recent times, improvements in surgical techniques, reconstruction methods and management of perioperative complications have helped expand the options available for patients with recurrent rectal cancer. This review article highlights the techniques employed at our institution for the management of locally recurrent rectal cancer with particular emphasis on the surgical approaches, the methods used for reconstruction and the avoidance of complications.
