Zusammenfassung

Die multimodale Therapie des Rektumkarzinoms hat sich über die letzte Dekade erheblich differenziert je nach Charakteristika des Tumors und Gegebenheiten des Patienten. Die Operation stellt weiterhin eine wichtige Säule der Therapie dar, deren Qualität von prognostischer Relevanz für betroffene Patienten ist. Diese Übersicht gibt einen aktuellen Überblick zur Indikation der verschiedenen chirurgischen Verfahren, aktuellen Entwicklungen zum perioperativen Management sowie zum Zeitpunkt einer Operation.

Abstract

The multimodal treatment of rectal cancer has differentiated considerably over the last decade depending on the characteristics of the tumor and the patient’s circumstances. Surgery continues to be an important pillar of therapy, the quality of which is of prognostic relevance for affected patients. This review provides an up-to-date overview of the indications for the various surgical procedures, current developments in perioperative management and the timing of surgery.
