First, he found that he had blood in his stool, and he had been treated as a hemorrhoid, and finally he was diagnosed with rectal adenocarcinoma.
Speaking of what happened in this month, 85-year-old Uncle Hu (pseudonym) still has lingering palpitations.
01
Blood in the stool is treated as a hemorrhoid
I didn't expect it to be rectal cancer
Since last year, Lao Hu has to defecate four or five times a day to solve, this feeling of not being clean is too torturous, and the stool is getting thinner and thinner, and then the stool begins to contain blood.
At first, Lao Hu thought it was a pot for hemorrhoids, and he used a lot of hemorrhoid cream, but the "Kikube area" always felt uncomfortable.
In the past month, the blood in his stool has become more and more frequent, and he has made up his mind to follow the doctor's advice for a colonoscopy.
The biopsy pathology report of the colonoscopy made him instantly "petrified": rectal adenocarcinoma!
Chief Physician Jin Ketao, deputy director of the Department of Gastrointestinal and Anal Surgery of Hangzhou First People's Hospital, believes that radical resection of rectal cancer must be done as soon as possible.
02
After dismantling the "time bomb" in the body
Precise demining under laparoscopy
However, during the preoperative examination, the doctor found that Mr. Hu had a bigger hidden danger - "abdominal aortic aneurysm", which was more than 5cm in diameter! This situation should be "dismantled" as soon as possible, otherwise there is a danger of "explosion and rupture" at any time.
Uncle Hu suffers from high blood pressure all year round, abdominal aortic aneurysm is like blowing up a balloon, with the long-term impact of blood flow, especially in people with poor blood pressure control, abdominal aortic aneurysm will get bigger and bigger, once ruptured, the overall mortality rate is extremely high, and it is a critical illness in vascular surgery!
At present, it is necessary to carry out minimally invasive surgical treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm as soon as possible to eliminate hidden dangers first. The operation went smoothly, and the contrast showed that the aneurysm was well isolated and there was no endoleakage.
In the next operation, Jin Ketao led the surgical team to quickly find the location of the lesion and accurately radically resect the rectal tumor under laparoscopy.
After 2 hours, the surgery was successfully completed! Uncle Hu's rectal cancer was "accurately deminered". One week after the operation, Uncle Hu was finally discharged from the hospital.
03
As soon as it is discovered, it is the middle and late stages
Pay attention to the important signal of bowel movements
Jin Ketao said that there are really a lot of patients like Uncle Hu in clinical practice. The scary thing about colorectal cancer is that it doesn't hurt at all until the end.
Many patients start with symptoms such as not being able to pull stool cleanly, and do not take it seriously. When it develops to the point of blood in the stool, weight loss, etc., it is generally in the middle and late stages.
Jin Ketao reminded that if there is a change in bowel habits, including incomplete stool, chronic diarrhea, constipation, blood in the stool, etc., or people with a history of colorectal tumors in their immediate family, they must pay attention to regular physical examinations for colorectal tumors. People over the age of 40 should have their first colonoscopy.
