[Current role of traditional endoscopy and prospects for virtual colonoscopy in the management of colorectal neoplastic lesions].

The Authors, reviewing their surgical experience with colo-rectal cancer in the last 13 years, conclude that, in the management of this condition, the routine use of traditional endoscopy will continue to have a crucial role in terms of prevention, cure and/or survival. It is possible that in the future present limits of endoscopic techniques will be seperated by routine use of endoscopic ultrasounds and virtual colonoscopy.

[Current role of endoscopic ultrasonography in the treatment of colorectal neoplastic lesions].

The Authors examined the value of endoscopic ultrasounds in the tmanagement of colo-rectal lesions, particularly neoplastic ones, on the basis of their surgical experience, concluding that to date such technique cannot substitute traditional endoscopy, but surely can be a valid complementary tool for imaging diagnostics, expecially to study wall tumoral infiltration or extra-parietal relapses.
