ABSTRACT
We report the findings from a retrospective study to determine the optimum treatment strategy for local recurrence following radical resection of rectal cancer. In our department, among all 430 patients that underwent radical resection of rectal cancer from 2012 to 2018, there were 28 patients that developed local recurrence. Of those patients, 12 underwent surgical treatment(Op group)and 16 did not(N-Op group). In the Op group, 8 patients underwent radical resection, of which 2 patients remained recurrence-free, and the other 6 patients developed recurrence. In the N-Op group, 6 patients were treated with systemic chemotherapy alone, a further 6 patients had palliative irradiation in addition to systemic chemotherapy, and the other 4 selected best supportive care(2 patients were treated with palliative irradiation). In the 8 patients who had palliative irradiation, 7 showed a decrease in numerical rating scale(NRS)after irradiation. The adverse events of palliative irradiation were scrotal dermatitis in 1 patient and perianal inflammation in another 3 patients. Our surgical results for local recurrence of rectal cancer in our department were worse in terms of recurrence rate, so these findings suggest that the preoperative surgical strategy could be reviewed, as well as the actual surgical methods such as the optimal circumferential resection margin. Palliative irradiation was found to be useful for pain control. However, the occurrence of adverse events remains a concern.
