Radiation proctitis
|
Radiation proctosigmoiditis is a frequent complication of radiation therapy used in the treatment of cervix or uterus cancer in women, prostate and testes cancer in men and urine bladder in both sexes. Every 7th patient treated for one of these diseases will have sign of chronic radiation injury in the rectum or sigmoideum. The injury is often worse in the rectum because of the high dose of radiation in this area, and more slight in the sigmoid colon. The small bowel can also be affected.
