Robotic rectal resection preserves anorectal function: Systematic review and meta‐analysis

The International Journal of Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2021., 2021
Abstract Background Improving survival rates in rectal cancer patients has generated a growing interest in functional outcomes after total mesorectal excision (TME). The well‐established low anterior resection syndrome (LARS) score assesses postoperative anorectal impairment after TME. Our meta‐analysis is the first to compare bowel function after open,

Management guidelines for low anterior resection syndrome – the MANUEL project

Colorectal Disease, Volume 23, Issue 2, Page 461-475, February 2021., 2021
Abstract Aim Little is known about the pathophysiology of low anterior resection syndrome (LARS), and evidence concerning the management of patients diagnosed with this condition is scarce. The aim of the LARS Expert Advisory Panel was to develop practical guidance for healthcare professionals dealing with LARS.

Latest Advances in Intersphincteric Resection for Low Rectal Cancer

Gastroenterology Research and Practice, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Background. Intersphincteric resection (ISR) has been a preferable alternative to abdominoperineal resection (APR) for anal preservation in patients with low rectal cancer. Laparoscopic ISR and robotic ISR have been widely used with the proposal of 2 cm or even 1 cm rule of distal free margin and the development of minimally invasive technology.

Transanal division of the anorectal junction followed by laparoscopic low anterior resection and coloanal pouch anastomosis: A technique facilitated by a balloon port

Journal of Minimal Access Surgery, 2011
We performed a laparoscopic ultra low anterior resection in two patients with low rectal cancers (3 cm from dentate line). A transanal division and continuous suture closure of anorectal junction was performed first followed by laparoscopic low anterior ...

Coloplasty Neorectum versus Straight Anastomosis in Low Rectal Cancers

International Scholarly Research Notices, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
Introduction. Patients with the diagnosis of carcinoma rectum after random allocation were assigned to 2 groups. One group was subjected to total mesorectal excision with coloplasty neorectum reconstruction and another group to total mesorectal excision with straight anastomosis.

Intersphincteric Resection for Low Rectal Cancer: An Overview

International Journal of Surgical Oncology, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
The treatment of rectal cancer has evolved from being solely a surgical endeavor to a multidisciplinary practice. Despite the improvement in outcomes conferred by the addition of chemoradiation therapy to rectal cancer treatment, advances in surgical technique have significantly increased rates of sphincter preservation and the avoidance of a permanent

Incidental Diagnostic and Treatment of a Suppurative Appendicitis at Colonoscopy

Case Reports in Medicine, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
We herein report a patient with acute appendicitis who was diagnosed by colonoscopy: a 54‐year‐old woman with normal physical examination and laboratory results within normal limits. The case had shown an erythematous and edematous bulging polypoid lesion with purulent discharging from appendiceal orifice into the cecum.

A randomized multicenter trial to compare functional outcome and complications of surgical procedures for low rectal cancers

Acta Medica Lituanica, 2011
Background. The outcomes after different low rectal resection types applied for rectal cancer treatment are still uncertain. The aim of the investigation was to evaluate long-term functional results, the rate of complications and post-operative lethality

Intersphincteric Resection and Coloanal Anastomosis in Treatment of Distal Rectal Cancer

International Journal of Surgical Oncology, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
In the treatment of distal rectal cancer, abdominoperineal resection is traditionally performed. However, the recognition of shorter safe distal resection line, intersphincteric resection technique has given a chance of sphincter‐saving surgery for patients with distal rectal cancer during last two decades and still is being performed as an alternative
