Abstract

Cancer of the colon and rectum is numerically the most major of visceral cancers in both sexes. A great proportion of colorectal cancer patients die of local problems. This report deals with the various techniques used to manage local recurrence, lung and liver metastases, and the control of pain.

Résumé

Le cancer du colon et du rectum est le cancer le plus fréquent aussi bien chez l'homme que chez la femme. Un grand nombre de malades atteints de cancers colo-rectaux meurent à la suite de phénomènes locaux. Cet article a pour but d'étudier les différentes techniques susceptibles de traiter les récidives locales, les métastases hépatiques et pulmonaires et de contrôler la douleur.
