NCT02488707

Brief Summary

A prospective study is planned for management of low rectal cancer with the aim of sphincter preservation and improving the oncological outcome of the patients, through comparing of both approaches minimally invasive techniques including transanal total mesorectal excision and laparoscopic intersphincteric resection.

Study Arms (2)

LISR group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Cases which undergo rectal resection with laparoscopic intersphincteric resection.

Procedure: laparoscopic intersphincteric resection (LISR group)

TAMIS Group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Cases with rectal cancer which undergo Transanal minimally invasive Total mesorectal excision.

Procedure: Transanal minimally invasive Total mesorectal excision (TAMIS group)

Interventions

the patient undergo laparoscopic mesorectal excision with high inferior mesenteric vein ligation combined with transanal distal resection of the rectum

Also known as: Laparoscopic total mesorectum excision with coloaanal anastomosis.
LISR group
