Low Anterior Resection: Alternative Anastomotic Techniques

Surgical Oncology Clinics of North America, 2010
Low anterior resection (LAR), with its numerous technical modifications, is one of the most commonly performed operations for rectal cancer. In the past, patients with locally advanced distal rectal cancer were most frequently treated by abdominoperineal resection and permanent colostomy.
