Abstract | Hepatic metastasis is the most common in rectal cancer, and patients with resectable hepatic metastasis have better survival. Pelvic radiotherapy has become a key component of multidisciplinary management of rectal cancer with hepatic metastasis. For patients with unresectable hepatic metastasis, palliative radiotherapy to the primary lesion can reduce the risk of bleeding and obstruction and thus improve the quality of life. For patients with resectable hepatic metastasis, pelvic radiotherapy can effectively reduce the local recurrence rate, help some patients avoid surgery and improve their quality of life, and even improve the overall survival. At present, there is no consensus on the standardized treatment mode of pelvic radiotherapy for rectal cancer patients with hepatic metastasis, and it has become a hotspot for research on how to select the population benefiting from radiotherapy, how to optimize multidisciplinary collaboration and radiotherapy plans (long-course radiotherapy versus short-course radiotherapy) and how to preserve organs. This article reviews the research progress in pelvic radiotherapy for rectal cancer with hepatic metastasis in recent years, and provides ideas for individualized pelvic radiotherapy for rectal cancer with hepatic metastasis. |
