About this study

Official title: Prospective Study on Image-guided Internal Iliac Vessels Dissection and Node-for-node for Selected Lateral Lymph Node Dissection in Middles-low Rectal Cancer

The investigators will perform CT three-dimension reconstruction for middle-low rectal cancer patients who have enlarged lateral lymph nodes to recognize the variance of pelvic vessels, by which to help reduce operative time and blood loss, localize the lateral lymph nodes, improve the lymph node harvested and positive rate. Besides, The investigators will label the vessels near the interested node to achieve node-by-node for further investigation.

Read the detailed description

CT three-dimensional reconstruction was performed for middle-low patients who had enlarged lateral lymph node before surgery. The main purpose is to recognize the track and variance of pelvic and iliac blood vessels. The investigators want to explore whether this method can help reduce operative time, unexpected injuries and blood loss, and The investigators also want to study whether it can help improve the lymph node harvested and positive rate during lateral lymph node dissection. Besides, The investigators want to perform node-by-node for enlarged lateral lymph node and CT three-dimensional reconstruction can help the investigators to localize and label the interested lymph node during operation. After node-by-node, The investigators can explore the accuracy of radiologists' and surgeons' judgement for lateral lymph node metastasis, and The investigators also want explore the best cut-off value of shorter diameter to predict lateral lymph node metastasis. Besides, The investigators want to perform texture analysis by combination radiology and pathology to find some useful parameters to predict lateral lymph node metastasis.

The investigators also want to explore the feasibility of dissecting the unilateral visceral branch of internal iliac vessels when performing lateral lymph node dissection.

The investigators will have a close follow-up for patients who have enlarged lateral lymph node but do not meet the criteria for lateral lymph node dissection. CT three-dimensional reconstruction can help The investigators recognize which parts' lateral lymph nodes have more potential possibility to metastasis and recurrence.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CT three-dimensional reconstruction in people with Rectal Cancer, run by Ziqiang Wang,MD at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Feb 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Ziqiang Wang, MD (+8618980602028, xbzhang262402@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

operative time (time frame: 2 year). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Feb 2019.
