RESUMEN
El cáncer de recto representa una de las principales neoplasias malignas en el grupo de edad productiva en México, desgraciadamente el cáncer de recto no cuenta aún con los grandes estudios aleatorizados que encontramos para el cáncer de colon, por lo que se debe individualizar desde su epidemiología, factores de riesgo, métodos diagnósticos, etapificación y tratamiento. La etapa histopatológica representa el principal factor pronóstico para los pacientes con cáncer rectal, el sistema TNM es el más comúnmente usado para etapificar el cáncer de recto. La etapificación se realiza por medio de ultrasonido transrectal, aunque en estadios avanzados tiene como limitantes la baja sensibilidad y especificidad para detectar involucro ganglionar. La resonancia magnética nuclear ofrece mayor visualización de estructuras, depende menos del operador y, a diferencia del ultrasonido transrectal, permite valorar tumores estenóticos. En el tratamiento del cáncer de recto, el tratamiento neoadyuvante ha demostrado ser mejor que el adyuvante. Afortunadamente, la resección abdominoperineal ha quedado en desuso y la cirugía conservadora de esfínter es el tratamiento preferido en la actualidad. El abordaje laparoscópico solo ha conferido las ventajas propias del abordaje y aunque ha demostrado ser una opción viable en manos expertas, aún faltan estudios aleatorizados para considerarlo como primera opción. Las consideraciones diagnósticas y terapéuticas del cáncer de recto son totalmente distintas al cáncer de colon, por lo que los pacientes deben ser etapificados de manera específica para su tratamiento adecuado y se requieren más estudios serios sobre los resultados a largo plazo de las diferentes opciones terapéuticas.
