Abstract

Abstract The clinical records of 61 patients who underwent extended surgery, including resection of parietes or other viscera, from 1965 to 1977 for cancer of the rectum and sigmoid were reviewed. Abdominoperineal resection was performed in 41 patients, anterior resection in 18 and Hartmann's resection in 2. The postoperative mortality rate was 8·2 per cent, the non-lethal morbidity rate 30·3 per cent, but 4 patients presented multiple complications. The 5-year survival rate was evaluated separately for patients with and without microscopic evidence of neoplastic involvement of the simultaneously excised structures; in the first group it was 32 per cent, in the second 75 per cent. Local or distant recurrence occurred in 66 per cent of patients with microscopic infiltration and in 24 per cent of patients without microscopic infiltration. These results compare favourably with those reported after ordinary resections of Dukes' C cancers of the rectum and sigmoid, and seem to justify the use of extended surgery when cancer of the rectum and sigmoid has invaded contiguous structures.
