Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rectal cancer is one of the most prevalent cancers world-wide. It is also a paradigm for multimodal management, as the combination of surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy is often necessary to achieve the optimal outcome. Recently, international experts met in Heidelberg, Germany to discuss the latest developments in the management of rectal cancer, including the anatomic and pathologic basis, staging tools, surgical concepts including fast-track surgery and laparoscopic resection, functional outcome after surgery and the role of radio- and chemotherapy. This monograph summarizes this meeting and gives an extensive overview of the current concepts in management of rectal cancer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides clear surgical options when the cases are not “routine”. It follows both a “how to” manual as well as an algorithm-based guide to allow the reader to understand the thought process behind the proposed treatment strategy. In each chapter, international experts address how to avoid being in tough surgical situations through preoperative planning, how to better deal with commonly encountered intra-operative findings, how to deal with difficult laparoscopic, open, endoscopic, and anorectal cases, and how to avoid medico-legal issues. Colorectal Surgery Consultation is simple and succinct and provides pragmatic advice and reproducible techniques that can be readily implemented by surgeons of varying experience to successfully treat complex colorectal problems through endoscopic and endoluminal approaches that may make the difference in patient outcomes.

Book excerpt: Rectal cancer is the medical term for cancer of the rectum, while colon cancer is the term used to refer to cancer of the colon. The term "colorectal cancer" refers to cancers of the colon, gastrointestinal system, or rectal lymph nodes together. Adenomatous polyps, which are a type of precancerous development, are the precursors to the majority of colorectal malignancies. Polyps (growths) may mutate and take on different forms if there are changes (abnormalities) in their cellular DNA. Unhealthy eating habits, binge drinking, smoking, inflammatory bowel disease running in the family, and a host of other characteristics are some of the risk factors for colorectal cancer.
