摘要
This observational prospective study aimed to assess the distribution of intramural and mesorectal tumor spread in mid/low rectal cancer after neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy. Distribution of mesorectal metastatic lymph nodes (MLNs) and mesorectal extranodal cancer tissue (EX), according to the tumor location, were analyzed. Distal intramural tumor spread was also performed. A total of 1676 LNs, 135 MLNs, and 69 EX were detected on 124 consecutive surgical specimens. Forty-two patients (34%) had MLNs. Six patients (4.8%) were classified as ypN1c. Distal viable cancer spread was observed in 3 patients (2.4%), all with mid rectal carcinoma. Two patients (1.6%) presented distal direct intramural extension less than 1 cm; and 1 (0.8%), with EX localized no more than 2 cm from the lower edge of the tumor. MLNs (76%) and EX (94%) were preferentially localized in the peritumoral area and in the first 3 cm just above the tumor. No viable distal intramural or mesorectal spread was observed in low rectal carcinoma. Distal intramural and mesorectal cancer spread is a rare event after neoadjuvant RCT. These results_ suggest that the 1-cm distal margin recommended in patients with low rectal carcinoma could be reduced with insurance to obtain a negative distal margin. The knowledge of preferential localization of MLNs and EX would help the pathologist to improve patient's lymph node staging. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
