FAQ’S
What does Mesorectal mean?
Blood and lymph vessels, lymph nodes, and autonomic nerves are all found in the mesorectum, which is the fatty tissue envelope of the rectal cavity.
What is complete Mesocolic excision?
Complete mesocolic excision involves the removal of an intact mesocolonic envelope, as well as central vascular ligation and apical node dissection.
What is Mesorectal fat?
The perirectal fat that covers the rectum is enveloped by the mesorectal fascia, which is a layer of connective tissue. It serves as the circumferential resection margin for the non-peritonealized part of the rectum, making it a key anatomical structure in rectal cancer staging.
Where are Mesorectal lymph nodes?
The majority of nodes are found in the proximal 2/3rd of the posterior rectal mesentery. It’s likely that the removal of these nodes explains why complete mesorectal excision has better oncologic outcomes than more conventional surgical techniques.
Are mesenteric lymph nodes serious?
Mesenteric adenitis is not usually fatal. Yet, having swollen lymph nodes for an extended period of time may indicate something more serious. If a serious bacterial infection causes the glands to swell and is not treated, the infection may spread to the bloodstream, resulting in sepsis.
