As part of a multimodal therapy concept, neoadjuvant therapy achieves downstaging of the tumour in 50-60% of cases and a so-called complete clinical response (cCR), defined as clinically (and radiologically) undetectable residual tumour after completion of neoadjuvant therapy, in 10-30% of cases.In view of the perioperative morbidity and mortality associated with radical rectal resection, including the occurrence of a symptom complex known as low anterior resection syndrome (LARS) and the need for deviation, at least temporarily, the question of the risk-benefit balance of organ resection in the presence of cCR has been raised. In this context, the therapeutic concept of a \"watch-and-wait\" approach with omission of immediate organ resection and inclusion in a structured surveillance regime, has emerged.For a safe, oncological implementation of this option, it is necessary to develop standards in the definition of a suitable patient clientele and the implementation of the concept. In addition to the initial correct selection of the patient group that is suitable for a primarily non-surgical procedure, the inherent goal is the early and sufficient detection of tumour recurrence (so-called local regrowth) during the \"watch-and-wait\" phase (surveillance).In this context, in this paper we address the questions of: 1. the optimal timing of initial re-staging, 2. the criteria for assessing the clinical response and selecting the appropriate patient clientele, 3. the rhythm and design of the surveillance protocol.</p>","PeriodicalId":23956,"journal":{"name":"Zentralblatt fur Chirurgie","volume":"149 1","pages":"75-82"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140040480","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In recent years, endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) has become increasingly important alongside classic polypectomy and mucosal resection after saline injection using a snare (EMR). Using ESD the lesion is marked, injected submucosally using viscous substances and the mucosa incised and tunneled with a transparent cap and a fine diathermy knife. Particularly in the case of widespread and high-risk lesions ESD enables a quasi-surgical \"en bloc\" resection almost regardless of size, with a histological R0 resection rate of far over 90% in specialized centers. ESD enables an excellent histopathological evaluation and has a low recurrence risk of 1-3%. Endoscopic full-thickness resection using a dedicated device (FTRD system) represents another addition to the armamentarium. It can be used for circumscribed submucosal, suspicious or scarred changes up to 2 cm in the middle and upper rectum. Endoscopic intermuscular dissection (EID) enables histopathological analysis of the complete submucosa beyond the mucosa and upper submucosal layer by including the circular inner muscle layer within the resection specimen. It reduces basal R1 situations and offers a new perspective for T1 carcinomas through curative, organ-preserving endoscopic therapy, especially in the case of deep submucosal infiltration alone, without other risk factors for metastases. Indications, the procedure itself and significance of the various techniques for premalignant and early malignant lesions in the rectum are presented.</p>","PeriodicalId":23956,"journal":{"name":"Zentralblatt fur Chirurgie","volume":"149 1","pages":"46-55"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10914494/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140040475","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
