Dear Colleagues and Friends, It is my privilege and honour to invite you to the XXth ISUCRS Congress, to be held in Budapest, Hungary, on June 6-10, 2004. The organizers are planning an outstanding scientific program which will cover all the up-to-date results relating to research and clinical practice in colorectal diseases. The capital of Hungary, Budapest, is a magical city on the River Danube, located in the heart of Europe. The historical monuments, churches and museums of our thousand-year-old state, together with the marvellous theaters and concert halls, offer a splendid touristic program. We are convinced that the scientific program in combination with the traditionally warm Hungarian hospitality will make this congress an unforgettable experience for all participants.

Foreword

Planning the main topics and subjects of the XXth Biennial Congress of ISUCRS, we have chosen the slogan “Challenges of Colorectal Surgery in the 21st Century” as a headline expressing aims, tasks and mission of our Budapest meeting. Why do we think that our age is a period of quick and fundamental changes in the surgical treatment of colorectal diseases? Let us have an overview of our specialty in the last century.
The achievements of surgical techniques have made possible - already in the first half of the 20th century - the abdominoperineal extirpation of the rectum, segmental resection of different parts of the colon, principles of stoma formation and successful preservation of the anal sphincter in surgery of upper third rectal cancer by anterior rectal resection. The “traditional” methods of colorectal surgery developed by Miles, Hartmann, and Dixon, Goligher and many other creative European and American surgeons have been used without any important modification till the last quarter of the previous century.
During the same time, a lot of new factors appeared in the diagnostics and treatment of cancer disease, in anesthesiology and perioperative care, even the surgical techniques developed in this period, improving results, decreasing operative risk, mortality and morbidity. In spite all of these; we surgeons used the traditional schemes of colorectal operations - mainly in the treatment of colorectal cancer – practically unchanged. The change of paradigms happened about 1980. Surgeons recognized that operative radicality can be enhanced without increasing operative risk, due to the modern anesthesia, intensive care, antibiotic and thrombosis prophylaxis, and safe surgical techniques. Surgery is not a loco regional modality of treatment anymore. We remove colorectal cancer even in its 4th stage; even in locally advanced cases involving adjacent organs, and even with distant metastases in the same body cavity. While surgery of mammary cancer in the last two decades is characterized by decreasing extension of surgery - like breast conserving limited radicality, sentinel lymph node dissection etc. – surgery of colorectal cancer has extended its radicality. Experiences of total proctocolectomies made for the treatment of ulcerative colitis showed us that an acceptable quality of life is possible without large bowels. Based on this fact, we treat now obstructive tumors of the left colon with subtotal colectomy, extending surgical radicality enhancing oncological safety and performing emergency colorectal resection without stoma. We extended the radicality of middle and low third rectal cancer surgery by mean of total mesorectal excision preserving more sphincters and resulting in an admirable decrease of local recurrences.
At the turnover of the third millennium, we see a new direction of the development in colorectal surgery. The minimal invasive technique is already the dominating method of today in surgery of inflammatory and benign CR diseases. Minimal invasive techniques are used in a more and more impressing way for the surgical treatment of malignant CR diseases with the same radicality and oncological effect as the one of open interventions. Screening will increase the number of early CR lesions proper for endoscopic removal. We look forward a revolution in CR surgery characterized by increasing importance of minimal invasive techniques, oncogenetics and systematic screening of population in critical ages.
This book contains papers based on the material of the 2004 Budapest ISUCRS Congress, mirroring the developments of colorectal surgery in this exciting period at the beginning of the third millennium.
