Overview
Primary prevention of radiation proctitis can be done by the modifications of radiation techniques and doses or by use of prophylactic adjunct medical and surgical therapies.[1]
Primary Prevention
Primary prevention strategies include: [2]
- modifications of radiation techniques and doses (Ex: intensity-modulated radiation therapy, image-guided radiation therapy decreases the rectal toxicity while maximizing the dose to the tumor.)[3]
- Identifying high risk patients, based on genomic study helps taking extra precautions in those patients[4][5]
- Use of adjuvant medical treatment (Ex: amifostine, sucralfate, 5-aminosalicylic acid, or sulphasalazine) have been associated with the minimal effect and are rarely used.[6][7][8]
- Synbiotics and microbiotics can be used to prevent radiation proctitis by altering the intestinal flora.[9][10]
- Implantation of of endorectal balloons and novel rectum spacers lead to reduction in the maximum dose to the rectum and the total volume of irradiated rectum[11]
- Prophylactic surgical therapies in the form of insertion of biodegradable mesh slings, intra-pelvic breast prostheses or omentoplasty can be done during operative resection,whenever postoperative radiotherapy may be indicated.[12]
