Abstract

Post-radiation occlusion is a serious complication of radiation enteropathy. It occurs in patients undergoing radiotherapy for gynecologic or rectal cancer. Accurate management is essential to improve patients' survival. We here report the case of a patient undergoing surgery for rectal cancer. He had post-radiation stricture due to tight stenosis of the anal canal and of the distal end of the sigmoid colon. This study describes the pathophysiology of this rare entity and highlights the role of imaging tests in the management of this disorder. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
