“…It is reasonable to believe that these applications could also be used for EUS in the colon. A recent study emphasizes the feasibility of forward-viewing radial-array EUS of staging colonic cancers in all segments of the colon [9] and we tend to carefully agree, based on our own results for Blow risk^tu-mours, especially for T-stages.…”

Background and Objectives:Treatment of colonic cancer patients is highly dependent on the depth of tumor invasion (T-stage) as well as the extension of lymph node involvement (N-stage). We aimed to systematically review the accuracy of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) for staging of colonic cancer proximal to the rectum.Patients and Methods:Men and women with colonic adenocarcinomas were included in the study. EUS staging was compared to histopathology as the gold standard. Outcome measures were T- and N-staging accuracies. Articles were searched in PubMed, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, and EMBASE.Results:Six studies were identified comparing EUS staging of colonic cancer to histopathology. The pooled-staging sensitivity and specificity were 0.90 and 0.98 for T1 tumors, 0.67 and 0.96 for T2 tumors, and 0.97 and 0.83 for T3/T4 tumors, respectively. Sensitivity and specificity for N + disease were 0.59 and 0.78, respectively.Conclusions:EUS is a feasible method for T-staging of cancers of the colon proximal to the rectum. The accuracy of lymph node staging needs to be verified by prospective multicenter studies including larger patient populations.

“…Prospective radial array echogenic endoscopy can be used to diagnose colon cancer, but it has been concluded that this method is not suitable for locally advanced colon cancer, nor is it suitable for assessing peripheral lesions of colon cancer, and its accuracy also needs to be expanded to continue research [31]. Further research has found many diagnostic markers.…”

Colon cancer is a common gastrointestinal malignancy in daily life and is the third most common cancer. So far, the global incidence of colon cancer has risen every year. Colon cancer mortality accounts for half of the incidence, colon cancer mortality ranks fi fth in malignant tumor mortality, which seriously threatens human survival and health. This article refers to the latest domestic and foreign related articles related to colon cancer. It summarizes common and emerging screening methods for colon cancer which can make early detection and early treatment of the disease for reducing the deterioration and metastasis of colon cancer. It discusses the diagnostic markers of colon cancer found out in recent years and its mechanism of action, to improve the level, accuracy and scientifi city of diagnosis. This article points out that the metastasis of colon cancer is the main cause of death in patients with colon cancer and to discuss the mechanism of its metastasis. It also summarizes the therapy thereof and advantages and disadvantages of colon cancer from different aspects such as intestinal fl ora, targeted therapy, traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine. Finally, the article summaries some methods that can effectively prevent colon cancer, reduce the occurrence of colon cancer from the source and improve people's quality of life.

Forward-viewing radial-array echoendoscope for staging of colon cancer beyond the rectum

Abstract: The echoendoscope is a feasible staging tool for colon cancer beyond rectum. However, accuracy of the echoendoscope needs to be verified by larger systematic studies.
