[Management of radiation-induced intestinal injury:from multi-disciplinary team team to holistic integrative management].

Radiation-induced intestinal injury is a radiation injury of the colon and rectum after radiotherapy for pelvic malignant tumors. This condition affects multiple organs in the pelvis, making treatment challenging. In clinical practice, the most effective protocol is often determined through discussion by a multi-disciplinary team (MDT). However, due to the severity and complexity of radiation enteritis, many patients still experience poor diagnosis and treatment outcomes. Holistic integrative management (HIM) is a rapidly developing concept that has greatly enhanced clinical medicine in recent years. It improves the level of diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and rehabilitation from multiple dimensions of prevention, screening, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation. In the context of radiation-induced intestinal injury, HIM also calls for the implementation of an individualized management system that focuses on the patient as a whole within the healthcare team. From the perspective of HIM, this article introduces some of the latest progress of radiation-induced intestinal injury in recent years.
