Virtual Colonoscopy Colorectal Surgery Department
Virtual colonoscopy – how does it work • Virtual Colonoscopy is a promising new method for detecting colorectal polyps and cancers. Air is insufflated into a cleansed colon, and high resolution, thinly-collimated spiral CT slices are acquired. The two dimensional slices, as well as the post-processed "fly-through" virtual colonoscopic images, are examined for polyps and tumors. Colorectal Surgery Department
Virtual Colonoscopy- advantages • Advantages of Virtual Colonoscopy Virtual Colonoscopy is minimally invasive, and does not carry the low but real (1 in 1500) risk of perforation associated with Conventional Colonoscopy. It is well tolerated by patients and does not require sedation. It is capable of evaluating the colon upstream from obstructing lesions that prevent passage of an endoscope. Virtual Colonoscopy is significantly less expensive than Conventional Colonoscopy. Colorectal Surgery Department
Virtual Colonoscopy-Disadvantages • The dose of ionizing radiation is less than that of a conventional abdominal CT, and is comparable to obtaining a supine and upright plain film exam of the abdomen. • Colonoscopy by CT does not provide the same information as Conventional Colonoscopy. Mucosal detail and color is not visible which limits the characterization of lesions. In addition, the detection of small polyps is inferior Colorectal Surgery Department
Virtual colonoscopy-disadvantages • As with any procedure, including Conventional Colonoscopy, there are no guarantees that all clinically significant growths will be detected. It should be remembered than between 10 and 20% of all polyps, and up to 5% of colon cancers are missed, even on Conventional Colonoscopy. • Virtual Colonoscopy (like the Barium Enema) is a diagnostic not therapeutic technique. All patients in whom polyps are identified would need to undergo Conventional Colonoscopy for removal. Colorectal Surgery Department
Virtual Colonoscopy Current indications • Frail elderly patients • Occlusive cancer for detection of other lesions • Previous incomplete colonoscopy Colorectal Surgery Department
Surgical Advances • LOCAL RESECTION • TOTAL MESORECTAL EXCISION(TME) • COLOANAL POUCH ANASTOMOSIS • LAPAROSCOPIC SURGERY Colorectal Surgery Department
Local Resection of low rectal tumours Transanal resection or TEMS (Trans anal endoscopic microsurgery) allows anal sphincter preservation while avoiding the risks of abdominal surgery - but its oncologic acceptability remains controversial. • No randomised trials exist • Safe application of this technique requires accurate preoperative staging, careful transanal resection, and meticulous histological examination. Factors that increase the risk of recurrence following local resection include T stage, poor histological grade, lymphovascular invasion, and positive excision margins Colorectal Surgery Department
Local resection for low rectal tumours • Recent meta-analysis indicates that local recurrence occurs in • 9.7% of patients (range 0%-24%) of patients with T1 tumors • 25% (range 0%-67%) of those with T2 tumors • 38% (range 0%-100%) of those with T3 tumors • Sengupta S,Tjandra JJ.
