Resumen
HERRANZ AMO, F. et al. Preservation of the bladder in rectal cancer with prostatic invasion. Actas Urol Esp [online]. 2004, vol.28, n.6, pp.447-451. ISSN 0210-4806.
Colorectal cancer in the 2nd commonest cancer in Europe. In 5-10% of cases there is infiltration of urological organs. When infiltration affects the bladder or the prostate, anterior pelvic exenteration is the treatment that achieves the largest percentage of tumor free margins and the best 5-year survival. In very select cases of prostatic infiltration, the bladder can be preserved and prostatectomy and abdominoperineal block resection are carried out fulfilling oncological surgical requirements and producing an important improvement in the patient's quality of life. Owing to the very scarse published literature (two articles with three cases) we contribute our experience of 2 patients who received cytoreducing preoperative radiochemotherapy, prostatectomy and block abdominoperineal amputation and intraoperative radiotherapy. We describe the surgical technique used, which is substantially different from standard prostatectomy and requires good coordination between surgeons and urologists.
