Transcecum catheterization ileostomy is safe and effective to prevent anastomotic leakage in post-laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery: a single-center retrospective study.

Background: Preventive ileostomy (PI) is conventionally performed to prevent anastomotic leakage (AL) after laparoscopic total mesorectal excision (LTME) for low rectal cancer; however, secondary surgery is required to remove the ostomy tube. We designed a new type of ostomy, transcecum catheterization ileostomy (TCI) to prevent AL. Its principle is similar to PI, but no secondary operation is needed.

Laparoscopic radical resection for situs inversus totalis with colonic splenic flexure carcinoma: A case report.

Background: Situs inversus totalis (SIT) is a rare group of congenital developmental malformations in the clinical setting, with all organs in the chest and abdomen existing in a mirror image reversal of their normal positions. Few reports have described laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer in patients with SIT, and it is considered difficult even for an experienced surgeon because of the mirror positioning. We present a case report of laparoscopic radical resection of a colonic splenic flexure carcinoma in a patient with SIT.

Risk Analysis of Positive PD-L1 Expression and Clinicopathological Features and Survival Prognosis in Patients with Colorectal Cancer: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

In order to explore the significance of PD-L1 expression in the prognosis and clinicopathological characteristics of colorectal cancer (CRC), the PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CNKI, and multisquare databases are systematically searched for the relevant relationship between PD-L1 expression and CRC prognosis. The search time is completed until June 2021. Literature is filtered and data extracted by inclusion exclusion criteria, and Meta-analysis is performed with Stata SE12.

Disruption of the c-Myc/miR-200b-3p/PRDX2 regulatory loop enhances tumor metastasis and chemotherapeutic resistance in colorectal cancer.

Background: Metastasis is a major threat to colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. We have reported that peroxiredoxin-2 (PRDX2) is associated with CRC invasion and metastasis. However, the mechanisms regulating PRDX2 expression remain unclear.

Peroxiredoxin 2 is associated with colorectal cancer progression and poor survival of patients.

The present study was to investigate the clinical significance of peroxiredoxin 2 (PRDX2), an oncoenzyme, in the development and progression of colorectal cancer(CRC).We found levels of PRDX2 mRNA and protein were higher in CRC cell lines than in normal human colonic epithelial cells. PRDX2 expression was significantly up-regulated in CRC lesions compared with that in the adjacent noncancerous tissues.
