Modern Approaches to Rectal Cancer: Integrating Endoscopic, Surgical, and Oncological Care

Original language description

Rectal cancer remains a significant clinical challenge due to its complex anatomy and the critical need to balance oncological radicality with functional preservation. Multimodal treatment strategies, including neoadjuvant therapy, advanced endoscopic techniques, and precise surgical approaches, have evolved to optimize patient outcomes. Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy improves resectability and local control in locally advanced tumors, while endoscopic treatment offers organ-preserving options for carefully selected early-stage cancers. Surgical resection, primarily through total mesorectal excision (TME), remains the cornerstone of curative therapy, with minimally invasive and transanal approaches enhancing precision and recovery. In advanced and recurrent cases, extended procedures such as pelvic exenteration provide potential for cure despite substantial morbidity. This review summarizes current evidence on the indications, techniques, and outcomes of neoadjuvant, endoscopic, and surgical treatments for rectal cancer, emphasizing individualized treatment planning to achieve optimal oncological and functional results.
