ObjectiveTo investigate the cause of stoma recurrence after anterior resection of rectal cancer and discover the methods of prevention and treatment.MethodsA total 91 patients with stoma recurrence after anterior resection of rectal cancer (or Dixon) were analysed retrospectively between 1985 and 1996. Fourtyseven patients experienced reradical resection (Miles), 27 cases palliative resection, and 11 cases only exploration. Thirtytwo cases had been followed up for 5 years and obtained 1,3,5year survival rate for reradical radical resection (Miles). Diagnosis and treatment of stomal recurrence after Dixon were evaluated. ResultsOne, three and fiveyear survival rate of reradical resection (Miles) was 93%,77%,45% respectively.ConclusionTo amplify blindly the adaptation of Dixon is to raise the rate of stoma recurrence. Digital rectal examination and fiberopic colonoscopy (and biopsy) are very essential methods for the diagnosis of stoma recurrence, and we strive to do reradical resection (Miles) for the patients with stoma recurrence after Dixon’s operation.
