目的 研究超声内镜(EUS)对结直肠癌(CRC)术前分期和指导手术方案的应用价值。方法 选取我院2014年11月—2015年11月结直肠外科收治的52例CRC患者,均接受根治性切除术治疗并经术中病理观察确诊,并以手术病理TNM分期结果作为金标准。术前对入选患者行超声内镜检查,参考金标准回顾性分析超声内镜的TNM分期诊断效果。结果 该52例CRC患者EUS诊断结果显示肿瘤侵犯浸润T分期(T1～T4)准确率分别为87.50%、80.00%、94.12%、83.33%,较手术病理金标准无差异(P>0.05);EUS诊断淋巴结转移N分期(N0～N2)准确率分别为76.92%、79.17%、86.67%,其中N0、N2准确率较金标准无差异(P>0.05),但N1分期准确率较金标准偏低(P<0.05)。结论 虽然ENS对淋巴结转移程度尤其是N1的诊断准确度存在一定误差,但从整体来看EUS能较好的观察CRC患者肿瘤侵犯浸润深度和判断淋巴结转移情况,术前结合EUS诊断结果有利于患者术前病理分期,并为选择合适的手术方案提供参考依据。

Objective To study the application value of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) in preoperative staging of colorectal cancer (CRC) and guidance of surgical procedures. Methods 52 cases of patients with CRC who were admitted in the department of colorectal surgery of our hospital from November 2014 and November 2015 were selected. All of them underwent radical resection and were confirmed by surgical and pathological observation. Surgical and pathological TNM staging results were taken as golden standard. Before surgery, endoscopic ultrasonography was performed in the selected patients. Referring to the gold standard, TNM staging diagnostic effects of endoscopic ultrasonography were retrospectively analyzed. Results The EUS diagnostic results of 52 patients with CRC showed that the accuracy rates of tumor invasion T stage (T1-T4) were 87.50%, 80.00%, 94.12% and 83.33% respectively. There was no significant difference, compared with surgical and pathological golden standard (P>0.05); The accuracy rates of EUS in diagnosis of lymph node metastasis N stage (N0-N2) were 76.92%, 79.17% and 86.67%, respectively. There was no significant difference in accuracy rate in N0 and N2, compared with the gold standard (P>0.05), but the accuracy in N1 stage was lower than that of gold standard (P<0.05). Conclusion Although ENS has some errors in the diagnosis of degree of lymph node metastasis, especially N1, on the whole, EUS can be better to observe the depth of tumor invasion and lymph node metastasis in patients with CRC. The diagnosis combining with EUS before surgery is helpful to the preoperative pathological staging, and provide reference for the selection of appropriate surgical procedures.
