What department does rectum cancer terminal see
First of all, rectal cancer should be linked to general surgery. Some large hospitals can directly link to colorectal surgery. If rectal cancer is a general outpatient, it should be linked to the outpatient number of general surgery or anorectal surgery.
Secondly, patients with rectal cancer need laboratory examination. Fecal occult blood test is a simple and easy method, and it is also a common examination to distinguish colon diseases. The second is hemoglobin test, if there is unexplained anemia, and hemoglobin is lower than 100g / l should do fiber colonoscopy or barium enema. The last test method in laboratory is serum carcinoembryonic antigen test, but this test has no specificity, so it is suitable for general survey or early diagnosis.
Finally, patients with rectal cancer also need endoscopic examination. If there is a change in stool habits, or hematochezia, or there is no special symptom after digital rectal examination, sigmoidoscopy or fiber colonoscopy can be performed. Endoscopy can know the condition of the lesion through direct vision, and take the biopsy of the patient as the basis for pathological diagnosis. At present, colonoscopy is the most effective and reliable method for the diagnosis of colorectal lesions. Most patients with early colorectal cancer can be detected by endoscopy.
