(1) Overview: -
The rectum
is part of the body’s digestive system. The digestive
system removes and processes nutrients, vitamins,
minerals, carbohydrates, fats, proteins, and water from
foods and helps pass waste material out of the body. The
digestive system is made up of the esophagus, stomach and
the small and large intestines. The first 6 feet of the
large intestine are called the large bowel or colon. The
last 6 inches are the rectum and the anal canal. The anal
canal ends at the anus, the opening of the large intestine
to the outside of the body.
(2) Risk factors: -
(i) Age 50
years or above.
(ii) A
family history of cancer of the colon or rectum
(iii) A
personal history of cancer of the colon, rectum, ovary,
endometrium or breast.
(iv) A
history of ulcerative colitis (Ulcers in the lining of the
large intestine or crohn’s disease.)
(v) Certain
hereditary conditions such as familial adenomatous
polyposis and hereditary non-polyposis colon cancers.
(3) Signs and symptoms: -
(a) A change
in bowel habits
(b) Blood
(either bright red or very dark) in the stool
(c)
Diarrhea, constipation, or feeling that the bowel does not
empty completely
(d) Stools
that are narrower than usual
(e) General
abdominal discomforts, frequent gas, pains, bloating,
fullness, or cramps.
(f) Weight
loss with no known reasons
(g) Constant
tiredness
(h) Vomiting
(4) Diagnosis as per modern
science: -
(1) Fecal
occult test
(2) Digital
rectal exam
(3) Barium
enema
(4)
Sigmoidoscopy
(5)
Colonoscopy
(6) Biopsy
(5) Staging: -
(i) Stage 0:
- A very early cancer involving only the innermost lining
of the colorectum
(ii) Stage
I: - The cancer involves a little more of the inner wall
of the colorectum (iii) Stage II: - The cancer has
spread outside the rectum to nearby tissue, but it has not
gone into the lymph nodes (small, bean-shaped structures
found throughout the body that filter substances in a
fluid called lymph and help fight infection and disease).
(iv) Stage
III: - In stage III, cancer has
spread to nearby lymph nodes, but it has not spread to
other parts of the body
(v) Stage
IV: - In stage IV, cancer has spread to other parts of the
body, such as the liver, lungs, or ovaries.
