Study of correlation of histopathology of colorectal carcinoma with cytopathology

Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 1

Abstract

This study was designed to investigate the frequency of the association between colorectal cancer and peritoneal cytology as well as the impact of surgical resection on conversion of cytology from benign to malignant cells being present. Furthermore, increasingly frequent reports of port site recurrences with laparoscopic colectomy for limited stage colon carcinoma prompted us to evaluate the incidence of tumor cell spillage with traditional “open” colonic surgery. The value of peritoneal washing cytology on prognosis is not clear yet. The aims of our prospective study were to consider the incidence and prognostic value of peritoneal cytology and to correlate with histopathology of colorectal carcinoma in patient underwent hemicolectomy surgery. Keywords: colorectal cancer, peritoneal fluid cytology, histopathology of colorectal carcinoma
