It is suggested to pay attention to combined preoperative chemotherapy, radiotherapy and other comprehensive treatment to improve the resection rate.

Second: the radical resection rate of sigmoid colon cancer should be based on the specific location of the cancer, and in the surgical resection, in addition to the resection of sigmoid colon, other aspects of resection should also be done, such as descending colon resection or partial rectal resection are more common.
