The Advantage of Timely Treatment for Colon Cancer

&nbsp;
Colon cancer is a disease which terrifies many of Thai people and it is also on the list of death cause diseases. As mentioned, the general surgeon or consultant of ASIT center ASS.PROF.DR. Thanyadej nimmanwudipong from Phyathai3 hospital stated that, the diseases caused by cell mutation in intestinal or colonial epithelium. The cancer cells quickly spread and live longer than normal one. Furthermore, they later will become thick for instance large polyp or tumor which distinctively seemed unusual.
<h2 style="color: #008080;">Treatment Procedure</h2>
Dr. Thanyadej explained “treatment is started by removing lymphatic system, lymph nodes and blood vessels next to to the cancerous parts out completely. After that take infected tissues out to diagnose for find level of mutation together with searching for its spread in lymph node and blood vessels. A pathologist then will make a report to inform stage of the diseases thoroughly.”
This information is very important for understanding a severity of the disease. In addition, it also helps surgeon and oncologist create necessary treatment plan for patients.

<li>Colorectal tumors in the abdominal cavity &#8211; Doctors will cut off the tumors, lymphatic system and blood vessels depends on the position of the tumor then connect cut intestines back together, known as Anastomosis. However, when the patients are in a state of emergency such as a bowel obstruction, the surgeon may consider choosing the least risky solution by colostomy after that will prepare them for a second operation to remove cancerous part and connect the left colon’s part back together for it to function excretion normally.</li>

<li>Descending colon tumors located at the end of the rectum or anus &#8211; The organs around this area comprise of complexity as they are in the lowest part of the abdomen and the pelvis. It is a reason why mostly cancer affects to wide areas near both organs instead of the intestine inside the abdominal cavity. In addition, the lower part of the colon is attached to the diaphragm inside the pelvis including the rectum sphincter. However, if the tumors are extremely close to the diaphragm, connecting all the intestine part back together could be difficult whereas there is a chance for being leaked or having uncontrollable excretion. Accordingly, the anus may have to be removed and replaced by colostomy permanently. </li>

<h2 style="color: #008080;">Access to Difficult Area by Minimal Invasive Surgery</h2>
Professor Thanyadej added that the current development of medical engineering can reduce size of surgical instruments and provide high signal and resolution for showing internal organs on screen. Today, minimally invasive surgery or laparoscopic surgery technique frequently used for colon surgery as both save time for recovery at the same time high solution from the laparoscopy presents clear image of organs supporting more detail during a process which is better than old traditional surgery.
<h2 style="color: #008080;">“Follow-up MONITORING” after the surgery</h2>
The doctor will take out the parasite part to diagnose the severity and stage of the disease then decide whether to provide more treating such as chemotherapy, anti-hormonal drugs or extra radiation or not depend on the risk of recurrence or the spreading. However, the doctor pressed that both factors need to be observed constantly.
Follow-up monitoring applied to detect or search for an opportunity of recurrence near the old surgical area including other organs such as the liver, abdomen and lungs. Furthermore, cancer screening will be provided to the patients every 3 month during the first 2 years then change to every 6 month until completing 5 years. However, receiving the laparoscopy could be made for about every two years.
