China News Online, October 16th (Chen Jingbai Jin) China, the United States, Europe, Japan, South Korea and other well-known experts at home and abroad gathered on the 16th "The 14th National Colorectal Surgery Conference of the Chinese Medical Association Surgery Branch and the 2021 International Colorectal Surgery Summit forum".

  Experts and scholars at home and abroad have carried out brainstorming from many aspects and published the latest expert consensus, focusing on promoting the level of diagnosis and treatment in the field of colorectal surgery and the technical level of young doctors in China.

On the same day, the conference released three "expert consensus" compiled by the Colorectal Surgery Group of the Chinese Medical Association Surgery Branch to provide more high-quality and standardized treatment and promote the improvement of diagnosis and treatment.

  It is reported that among the cases of colorectal cancer in China, the proportion of rectal cancer is very high, and most of them are middle and low rectal cancer. Among them, the operation of locally advanced low rectal cancer is difficult, the postoperative recurrence rate is high, and the quality of life is poor.

Professor Yu Jinming, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and dean of Shandong Cancer Hospital, believed that immunotherapy combined with precision radiotherapy is expected to become one of the important strategies for protecting the anus and even the rectum.

The reporter learned that the Department of Anorectal Surgery, Changhai Hospital of Naval Military Medical University took the lead in conducting related research in China, and applied neoadjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy in clinical treatment, and achieved good results. Therefore, many patients with low rectal cancer kept their anus and returned to normal work. ,Life.

  It is reported that at present, surgery is the only possible cure for colorectal tumors.

Technology has helped the development of surgical instruments, enabling colorectal surgeons to carry out precise and effective treatments for patients with different disease conditions.

According to reports, for patients with advanced colorectal tumors, minimally invasive surgery such as laparoscopy and robotics is effective. At the same time, innovative surgical methods continue to emerge, which also conform to the development trend and needs of minimally invasive and benefit patients.

  At present, the introduction of AI technology has improved the diagnosis and treatment of colorectal cancer, as well as the assessment and prediction of the condition.

In the opinion of experts, the combination of artificial intelligence (AI) technology and medicine is an important milestone in the development of modern medicine. It has realized the informatization and intelligence of clinicians in the diagnosis and treatment process, but it is not a competition between humans and machines. It is coordinated progress and development.

  Zhao Yupei, chairman of the Chinese Medical Association Surgery Branch and academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, said in an interview that day, China’s colorectal surgery has entered a stage of rapid development and improved the standard diagnosis and treatment level of colorectal surgeons, especially among young and middle-aged and grassroots physicians. Become one of the focus of the work of the Chinese Medical Association Surgery Branch.

This conference invited experts in the fields of colorectal surgery, pathology, imaging, oncology and radiotherapy to conduct a series of lectures on the standardized diagnosis and treatment of colorectal diseases, which benefited a large number of young doctors online and offline.

  Currently, clinical decision-making based on clinical big data has become a consensus.

However, China still lacks large-scale, systematic and comprehensive clinical databases, and existing databases lack standardization in data entry, maintenance, and use. The use of abundant case resources for clinical research still needs improvement.

  During the interview, the reporter learned that significant progress has been made in establishing high-quality and high-level clinical databases related to rectal cancer in China.

Professor Zhang Zhongtao, deputy chairman of the Chinese Medical Association Surgery Branch and head of the Colorectal Surgery Group, said that the establishment, maintenance and use of the clinical database of colorectal surgery in China provides a data basis for the evaluation of the current status of colorectal surgery in China and clinical related scientific research. Provide reference for the formulation of relevant national policies.

During the conference, many foreign experts also put forward some opinions and suggestions on the construction of China's clinical database based on the characteristics of the clinical database in their country. In particular, they put forward ideas on the sharing of relevant database resources in the country, parallel cooperation in academic research, and joint promotion of patient cure.
