Abstract

Despite the concept of membrane anatomy has been widely used in minimally invasive colorectal surgery, the definition of membrane anatomy and the establishment of membrane plane remain controversial. Therefore, it is difficult to establish a unified theoretical system of membrane anatomy. Through embryological studies and anatomical findings on the integrity and continuity of membranes, we try to discuss the theoretical system of membrane anatomy in colorectal surgery from three aspects: membrane anatomical system, membrane anatomical elements and membrane anatomical mechanism. The establishment of a unified theoretical system of membrane anatomy will not only contribute to the standardization operative procedures, but also to the establishment of uniform surgical standards for colorectal cancer.

膜解剖的理念虽然已广泛应用于结直肠癌的微创外科,但对膜解剖结构的定义以及膜平面的建立仍存在争议,因而无法建立统一的膜解剖理论体系。本文通过胚胎学、膜的整体性和延续性的研究,尝试从膜解剖系统、膜解剖要素和膜解剖机制三方面来论述结直肠手术膜解剖理论体系。建立统一的膜解剖理论体系,将有助于规范手术操作以及建立结直肠癌手术操作标准。.
