Özet

Purpose: The aim of this study is to retrospectively assess the contrubition of the minimal preparation CT to the diagnosis of colorectal cancer in the patients who were refered to department of gatroenterology with colorectal cancer prediagnosis and have consequent colonoscopically visible mass and histopathological proof. Materials and methods: 100 consecutive cases referred from department of gastroenterology between september 2008 and december 2012 with confirmed colonoscopical mass diagnosis were included to our study (Age range: 18 90 Sex: females 41 and 59 males). Radiological findings were statistically compared with pathological findings as a gold standard. Results: Of these patients with coloscopically visible mass, minimal preparation CT revealed asymmetric wall thickening(n:89), extracolonic mass (n:3), and symmetric wall thickening(n:2) and normal wall thickness (n:6). 79 cases had enlarged lymph nodes in pericolonic mesenteric fat tissue while remaning have no lymph nodes(21). 54 cases had stranding in pericolonic mesenteric fat tissue and remanining individuals showed normal fat density. The masses were located in rectum (n:54), sigmoid colon (n:17), descending colon (n:10), transverse colon (n:2), ascending colon (n:14), and cecum (n:3). Conclusion: In colorectal and extracolonic mass investigation we recommend minimal preparation CT, which is highly sensitive and more acceptible by patients.
