Early diagnosis of colorectal cancer that. The middle-aged or middle-aged and older patients (especially familial colorectal cancer or intestinal polyps), any recent unexplained blood or bowel habits will change, or unexplained iron deficiency anemia, we should first consider the possibility of this disease, we must lose no time to carry out the inspections.
(A) stool examination: fecal occult blood test for the diagnosis of the disease were not specific, but the method is simple and can be used as screening tools census, or provide clues to early diagnosis.

(2) digital rectal examination: My segment of rectal cancer than seen abroad, about 77.5%, the majority of rectal cancer in the rectum examination when touched.

(3) sigmoid endoscopy: 77.7% of colorectal cancer in the rectum and sigmoid colon, the sigmoid used by the 30cm long, can be directly found anal canal and rectum and sigmoid middle of the following tumors.

(4) barium enema X-ray examinations: sigmoid colon lesions in the upper position or higher are required to conduct barium enema X-ray examination. General barium enema X-ray examination of small colorectal cancer easily missed, the best use of double-contrast barium can improve diagnostic accuracy rate, and show the location and extent of tumor.

(5) fiber colonoscopy examination: to be clear of all colon, and in the heart of forceps from a pathological examination of suspicious lesions is conducive to the early and small colon cancer diagnosed and found to further increase the rate of correct diagnosis of the disease, colorectal cancer is the most important means of inspection.

(6) serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) Determination: In the serum of patients with colorectal cancer can be detected carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), which is a glycoprotein, often seen in the serum of patients with cancer, colorectal cancer is not related to the specific antigen, serum CEA determination is the right of consultation Broken not specific. But by RIA detection of CEA for quantitative dynamic observation of the effects of judgment and monitoring colorectal cancer recurrence after a certain significance. If colorectal cancer by surgery after resection of the tumor completely, serum CEA is gradually declining; If relapse, but also increased again.

(7) Other inspections: rectal ultrasound scan can clearly show rectal mass, size, depth and the surrounding tissue, and can distinguish between layers of the wall straight micro-structure, inspection method is simple, rapid delivery of images to choose surgery, postoperative follow-up to a certain extent help. CT examination of tumor infiltration of the intestine, liver and lymph node metastasis of important significance to the recurrence of rectal cancer diagnosis more accurate.

Long-term constipation can lead to colorectal cancer. Because of the long-term constipation is one of the causes for the partial eclipse of the moon or eat vegetables too small, too little food in cellulose. However, colorectal cancer in a high animal protein, high-fat, the so-called “fine eating” Europe and the United States and other countries mainly higher morbidity. Therefore, it was suggested that partial eclipse of high-fat, high-protein diet, liquid liner may intestinal anaerobic bacteria and increase produce more carcinogenic substances, such as acid molecular structure and carcinogenic polycyclic hydrocarbons is very similar; In the intestinal anaerobic spindle Bacillus can Deoxycholate carcinogenic substances into 3 — methylcholanthrene. The partial eclipse, less food cellulose, constipation big knot in the gut to stay in the stool time, the stool in the higher concentration of these carcinogenic substances, which may induce colorectal cancer, it can increase the incidence of colorectal cancer. Polyps are generally refers to the uplift in the gastrointestinal mucosal surface prominent cavity lesions. Colorectal polyps means any uplift in the mucosal surface of the lesion Said name only that the naked eye appearance, does not indicate some pathological nature. Gastrointestinal tract polyps in the colon the most common, especially the rectum and sigmoid colon, particularly the size of 2 mm in diameter can be since 10 centimeters above to below, for more droppings caused chronic stimulation. Long-term constipation, the stool in the colon stay too long. The stool of crude residue and stimulate the intestinal epithelial long-term foreign body, making it easy for a large intestinal damage. Long-term stimulus or intestinal epithelium, undermining local stable state of equilibrium, so that excessive cell proliferation; Exfoliated cells or slowed down; Or both club of polyp formation processes. Therefore, long-term constipation can lead to colorectal polyps.

Many people living in neglected hematochezia symptoms, the wrong blood in the stool that is not timely treatment of hemorrhoids, this is likely to result in colorectal cancer misdiagnosis, misdiagnosis, delays disease.

A 56-year-old female patient with hemorrhoids history of more than 10 years, often intermittent blood in the stool, almost a month to be increased volume, it is not after the flu, accompanied by abusing it, the DRE examination found that from the mouth anal 8 cm anterior rectal wall texture is hard, uneven surface mass-from rectal biopsy, pathology results colorectal cancer.

Early symptoms of colorectal cancer is not clear, for the first painless blood in the stool or bloody mucus, especially in patients with a history of hemorrhoids are easily overlooked the disease, cancer will be misdiagnosed as hemorrhoids, polyps, and enteritis.

Unknown cause of blood in the stool, should promptly take the following examinations: 1. Digital rectal examination, about 80% of colorectal cancer by digital rectal examination was found; 2. Mirror Mirror sigmoid colon or rectal examination; 3. The barium enema examination. Surgical resection is the main treatment of colorectal cancer, so vigilance blood in the stool, early screening, early detection, early surgery can greatly enhance the effectiveness and increase opportunities for cure.

Colon Perforation
1. Pathological changes and the clinical manifestations

(1) acute peritonitis-piercing: the features of the tumor in the colon perforation and abdominal same, larger cracks, large colon into the abdominal contents logistics acute diffuse peritonitis, Clinically, patients with acute perforation in the former accompanied ranging from the low level of obstruction, pain, abdominal distention and stop defecation and precursor symptoms; Visibility asymmetric abdominal intestinal whole abdominal tenderness and muscle tension.

(2) subacute-piercing abscess: pathological perforation often occurred in the primary tumor site, and without colon obstruction exists. Because of the continual growth of tumors, cancer of the Nutrition Center obstacles, necrosis, Rupture, and peritoneal off the same. For small perforation, tumor proximal lumen without obstruction, mesocaval pressure is not high, the colon into the abdominal cavity and less relief, the surrounding tissue adhesion formation of localized abscess or inflammatory parcels mass. Clinical perforation in patients with acute abdomen often pre-clinical manifestations, such as intra-abdominal abscess formation, there will be limitations with abdominal pain, persistent high fever, elevated blood, abdominal tenderness obviously hit the mass.

(3) chronic perforation of the colon fistula: the growth of colon cancer infiltrating the surrounding tissue and adjacent organ involvement with the adhesion of the primary cancer tumor necrosis off. When penetrating perforation adjacent organ involvement, forming different types of colon fistula, a common clinical organs fistula for colon fistula ileum and colon fistula jejunum, colon and colorectal gastrointestinal fistulas duodenal fistula.

2. Treatment

(1) the treatment of acute peritonitis perforation: carcinoma of the colon perforation caused by peritonitis, perforation short time, three to four hours within a short time of the preoperative active preparations should be OK for tumor resection of the lesion and perforation. If critically ill patients with peritoneal after serious pollution or perforation with shock, not tolerance larger operation, will stage stoma, peritoneal drainage, secondary tumor resection anastomosis suitable.

(2) abscess formation perforated colon cancer treatment: right colon and proximal transverse colon perforation caused by the abscess to Stage I tumor resection and anastomosis is feasible, and the left distal transverse colon perforation of the colon abscess Hartman’s surgery should be the first choice, if the patient-poisoning symptoms. The first abscess drainage and secondary tumor resection and anastomosis suitable.

(3) cancer of the fistula treatment: for this type of perforation of the colon without acute clinical process generally do not have emergency surgery can be dealt with adequately in the preoperative preparation circumstances elective surgery for stage radical mastectomy or tumor resection.

(3) anorectal cancer of the digestive tract bleeding is one of the major causes bleeding, bleeding under the speed and clinical divided into three types, acute hemorrhage, bleeding dominant and recessive bleeding. Right anorectal cancer caused by the treatment of lower gastrointestinal bleeding, including two principles, one for bleeding control, the second is itself cause cancer treatment. According to the hemorrhagic type, and tumor patients generally, and other aspects of comprehensive consideration, as appropriate, individually or both balanced implementation.

(1) hemorrhoids: Cancer is often mistaken for hemorrhoids, hemorrhoids and more generally for painless bleeding, fresh color is not mixed with feces, and the blood in the stool of patients with colorectal cancer accompanied symptoms stimulate mucus and rectum, sigmoid colon and rectal examination that can be seized funding differential.
     (2) amebic colitis: When evolved into chronic diseases, ulcer granulation base and the surrounding fibrous tissue hyperplasia, bowel wall thickening, mesocaval narrow, easily misdiagnosed as cancer, the need for biopsy at this time. Sports nutrition cookbook
     (3) intestinal tuberculosis: age of onset lighter, more than any other organ previous history of tuberculosis, occur in the cecum. But the proliferation of intestinal tuberculosis, because of the influx of Tuberculous granuloma and fibrous tissue hyperplasia, the bowel wall thickening, stiffen and easy to confuse and blind colorectal cancer, a biopsy can be diagnosed, x barium meal examination, the lesion can be found in the bowel or hopping phenomenon, the diagnosis helped.
     (4) Limitations enteritis: Good of the youth, common abdominal pain, diarrhea, fever, weight loss, anemia, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, abdominal mass and fistula formation signs and symptoms, the x barium meal and fiber colonoscopy can be identified.
Mr Green-letter-classification
     (5) chronic dysentery: Patients may be in abdominal pain, diarrhea, chicken is rare, mild moderate, the stool culture, barium enema and endoscopy, it is not difficult to make the diagnosis.
     (6) ulcerative colitis: Symptoms of chronic dysentery pretty close, but recurrent history of negative stool culture, sigmoid colon examination Visibility was fine granular mucosal changes of texture disappear, and with erythema of congestive Oval small ulcers, its surface covered with regular leakage of yellow-white, serious have large irregular ulcer. Nutritional diet diet
     (7) Other: If confronted lymphoid granuloma, rectal endometriosis, colonic diverticulitis Shanghai, with symptoms, signs, x-inspection and fiber colonoscopy purpose Kam.

1. Multiple malignant colorectal adenomas and malignant familial adenomatous polyposis colorectal cancer is a common cause of morbidity.
2. Changes in bowel habits and the nature of stool, change shape colorectal cancer is common clinical manifestation, there will be serious and tar-like stool will be.
3. For the majority of colorectal cancer, mucinous carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, undifferentiated carcinoma, surgery is a common treatment. Chemotherapy is not sensitive to colorectal cancer (less effect), specific anti-cancer treatment, treatment for colorectal cancer is the focus.
4. Colorectal cancer is a good location peritoneal metastasis and liver and postoperative patients every three months should be regular ultrasound examination, serum CEA examination facilitate prognosis and guide treatment.
5. “Elimination of the four-step detoxification” of colorectal cancer have some long-term effect.

Gastric cancer can occur bleeding, perforation, obstruction, gastrointestinal fistulas, and adhesions around the stomach complications such as abscess formation.

 Gastric cancer is a common cancer, the mortality rate after lung cancer, liver cancer, colorectal cancer. However, because 80% of the non-specificity of symptoms of early gastric cancer, the diagnosis difficult, therefore, can not miss any clues cutting, especially following some misconceptions people may lose their vigilance against cancer.
One, stomach problems in the elderly is the illnesses.
Wrong. Although the incidence of gastric cancer in the elderly group to a higher, but many hospitals in China reported that 35 young people under the age of gastric cancer incidence rate has reached 6% -11%, and a higher degree of malignancy. Due to pressure young people to learn work, rest, eating rules, the incidence of gastric ulcers and other stomach problems is not too low, so if the unknown causes of upper abdominal discomfort, bloating, pain, gastric flu, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, poor appetite, drowsiness, fatigue easily, sexual wasting and anemia, tar-like stool or hematemesis, to the hospital in time.
Two, I gastropathy years old, they can snack on drugs.
Wrong. 80% of patients with early gastric cancer without symptoms, few symptoms of atypical symptoms is more, with a number of vulnerable gastritis, gastric ulcers and other stomach problems confusion. Therefore, do not opinionated and based on past experience symptoms of the disease to determine its own, solve their own medicines, it is unscientific, most likely interfere with the early diagnosis of gastric cancer.
Three, I have been suffering from gastric ulcer for more than half of the stomach, it is no longer possible for gastric cancer.
Wrong. In most of the stomach after resection of it is still possible for gastric cancer, gastric cancer medicine called residual. Patients with residual stomach gastric cancer incidence is healthy people 2-12 times, the treatment of stomach problems and medication than 2-4 times higher. Residual stomach cancer occurred because of the loss of function of Helicobacter pylori (pyloric sphincter has two functions, namely to prevent stomach has not yet digested good food into the duodenum; Two is to prevent the intestinal fluid, bile reflux Canal, the protection of the gastric acid environment), duodenum and the bile can be dissolved trypsin epithelial cells to accelerate cell division; bile, intestinal fluid mainly alkaline, these are easily damaged gastric barrier; nitrite remnant stomach bacteria increased production, making cancer nitroso compounds concentration increases; when gastric resection and anastomosis of stimulation and tension high ligation, is likely to become a carcinogenic factor. Not because of the gastric resection of gastric cancer treated lightly, healthy patients after stomach problems, after five years should be done once a year for gastroscopy, not to biopsy examination.
Gastric cancer screening methods commonly used are:
A fiber endoscopy (commonly known as gastroscopy); 2, X-ray barium meal examination; 3, B-; 4, immunological tests: If CEA; 5, CT.
Early gastric cancer conventional CT difficult, relying mainly on double-contrast barium and fiberoptic endoscopy.
X-ray barium meal examination is the main gastrointestinal cancer screening methods, particularly stomach-low double contrast examination can be as small as 0.5 centimeters that the small gastric cancer or small gastric cancer. Before serving 1-2 day suspension thorough X-ray or affect gastrointestinal function drugs, bismuth follows carbonate, calcium gluconate; Before the 1st Java easily eat less food, dinner after fasting; There gastric retention of patients check the night before gastric lavage; The whole digestive tract barium meal examination on the 2:00 service sulfate barium 100 grams of powder with water temperature 200-300 ml - suits; relaxed mood, as ingestion of barium no harmful effects on the body that will not be absorbed, with the feces excreted, the inspection after 1-2 days of the white stool, but within three months of pregnancy can not do the inspection.
Gastroscopy and biopsy is the gold standard for the diagnosis of gastric cancer, doctors determined no contraindications can be related to the inspection, examination subjects fasted for eight hours before, it is estimated that delayed gastric emptying, fasting need more time, pyloric obstruction, should be re-examination of gastric lavage. Admission postoperative gastric biopsy were not immediately consumed drinks and food rough. Gastroscopy that many patients are reluctant to accept too painful. In fact, under the conditions of modern technology, an endoscopic examination can be completed 10 minutes, some sedatives inspection service can reduce pain, many hospitals now launched a painless gastroscopy.
As early gastric cancer five-year survival rate after surgery is about 80%, so attention should be paid to patients with early gastric cancer follow-up. These diseases include: 1 chronic atrophic gastritis: cancer rate was 8.6% resilient%; ② gastric polyps, especially multiple adenomatous polyps, cancer rates as high as 14% -59%; ③ cancerous ulcer rate of 1% -15% ; ④ remnant stomach; ⑤ gastric dysplasia, moderate and severe dysplasia with early gastric cancer are very close to some very severe hyperplasia as early gastric cancer.
Gastric cancer prevention is very important to the diet, eat fresh fruits and vegetables, eat more of vitamin A, B, E food, appropriately increase protein, dairy, milk intake and to protect the gastric mucosa. Eat less or eat pickles, left. Blah smoked, fried, moldy food, alcoholic drinks and tobacco bogey.

We Tumor Hospital, met patients and their families often asked, “can eat spicy food-induced gastric cancer.” Based on years of clinical studies and follow-up investigation confirmed: food spicy food and the incidence of gastric cancer is not directly related. Some provinces in South China residents will eat chili hobby; The northern residents have the habit of eating garlic.

      Pepper contains many trace elements and vitamin C, in the gastrointestinal tract can prevent carcinogenic substances - nitrite amines in vivo formation. Nitrate widely exist in the natural world, such as the existence of a large quantity of food, it is non-toxic itself originally, but in oral close, as part of the role of saliva, forming a nitrite, and protein catabolism in the stomach after the product - amine interaction into nitrite amine This is a strong carcinogenic agent, and vitamin C to prevent the formation of nitrite amines, a cancer prevention role.

      Other spicy foods such as ginger, garlic, and Wen Xin, the former fever and cold-dispelling, temperature Jianwei, the antiemetic efficacy of insecticidal; The latter was a bactericidal antibiotic, cough expectorant, diuretic blood pressure, stomach will lag effect.

      Thus, proper eating some spicy foods on human health is good, spicy food that will be induced gastric cancer is no scientific basis. But eating too much pepper, stimulate the throat, esophagus and stomach. Therefore, laryngitis, esophagitis, gastritis, and gastric ulcer patients should try to eat spicy food to prevent stimulation of these sites, increasing symptoms.
