Abstract

Despite the fact that colorectal polyps and solitary rectal ulcers may be present in conjunction with rectal prolapse, association between rectal prolapse and rectal cancer is very rare. As far as we could determine, there are only a few articles concerning rectal cancer in association with rectal prolapse in the literature. This case, a 63-year-old female patient, had suffered from a rectal prolapse since childhood and presented as a case of rectal cancer. At presentation, she complained of constipation and rectal bleeding for the previous six months. At physical examination there was a relaxed anal sphincter and a large reddish mass protruding via the anal canal when the patient strained. There was a fungating lesion in the upper left part of the rectal mucosa. An incisional biopsy was performed, the histopathological result of which was adenocarcinoma of the rectum. Changes in bowel habits, chronic constipation and chronic irritation seen in rectal prolapse may be responsible for the development of rectal cancer. Thus, a detailed history, digital rectal examination and rectosigmoidoscopic examination are important, particularly in patients with long-term rectal prolapse.

Özet

Rektal prolapsus ile birlikte kolorektal polip, rektal soliter ülser görülmesine rağmen rektal prolapsus ile rektum kanseri birlikteliği oldukça nadir görülmektedir. Tespit edebildiğimiz kadarıyla dünya literatüründe sadece birkaç vaka yayınlanmıştır. Olgumuz rektal prolapsus ile birlikte rektum kanseri görülen 63 yaşında bir bayan idi. Anamnezinde çocukluğundan beri ıkınmakla ve öksürmekle belirginleşen rektal prolapsusu vardı. Son 6 aydır ara ara kabızlık, muköz akıntı, kanama, halsizlik ve gaita inkontinansı mevcuttu. Rektal muayenede elle geriye itilebilen total rektal prolapsus tespit edildi. Prolabe olan rektumun üzerinde yaklaşık 3x4 cm lik tümöral kitle saptandı ve biyopsi alındı. Biyopsi sonucu adenokanser olarak değerlendirildi. Rektal prolapsusta görülen barsak alışkanlığındaki değişiklik, kronik kabızlık ve irritasyonun rektum kanseri gelişmesinden sorumlu olabileceği kanaatindeyiz. Bu nedenle uzun süre tedavi edilmemiş rektal prolapsuslu hastalarda detaylı bir anamnez, rektal tuşe ve rektosigmoidoskopik inceleme oldukça önemlidir.
