Although significant advancements have been made in the treatment of rectal cancer, the deterioration of quality of life (QoL) remains a challenging issue. Various tools have been developed to assess QoL, including the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Colorectal (FACT-C) scale, the QLQ-C30 and QLQ-CR29 by the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC), and the 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36). Factors such as the lower location of the tumor, radiation therapy, chemoradiotherapy, and chemotherapy are associated with a decline in QoL. Furthermore, anastomotic leakage following rectal cancer resection is an important risk factor affecting QoL. With the development of novel treatment approaches, including neoadjuvant therapies such as chemoradiotherapy and total neoadjuvant therapy, the rate of clinical complete remission has increased, leading to the emergence of organ-preserving strategies. Both local excision and the \"watch-and-wait\" approach following neoadjuvant therapy improved functional outcomes and QoL. Efforts to improve QoL after rectal cancer surgery are ongoing in surgical techniques for rectal cancer. Since QoL is determined by a complex interplay of factors, including the patient's physical condition, surgical techniques, and psychological and social elements, a comprehensive approach is necessary to understand and enhance it. This review aims to describe the methods for measuring QoL in rectal cancer patients after surgery, the key risk factors involved, and various strategies and efforts to improve QoL outcomes.</p>","PeriodicalId":8267,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Coloproctology","volume":"40 6","pages":"527-537"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142920653","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
