Study Arms (2)

Natural orifice specimen extraction

EXPERIMENTAL

Conventional laparoscopic resection of colorectal cancer with natural orifice specimen extraction

Procedure: natural orifice specimen extraction

Laparoendoscopic resection

EXPERIMENTAL

Laparoscopic assisted transanal endoscopic resection of rectal cancer

Procedure: Laparoendoscopic resection

Interventions

Conventional laparoscopic resection of colorectal cancer is done then specimen is extracted through natural orifice (anal or vaginal orifice).

Natural orifice specimen extraction

Endoscopic phase: Transanal platform is inserted into the rectum, and pneumorectum is established. The lumen is occluded below the level of the tumor. The avascular ''oncologic'' presacral plane is entered posteriorly, and dissection proceeds cephalad in the total mesorectal excision planes. Next, the abdominal cavity is entered at the peritoneal reflection. The superior rectal artery is divided. The rectal stump then is reflected into the abdominal cavity, and retrograde dissection is performed until the procedure is limited by instrument length. Laparoscopic phase: Colon mobilization, lymph node dissection, and mesenteric excision are performed laparoscopically. Mobilization of the splenic flexure is done if needed.

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Medically fit patient.
  • Non metastatic pathologically proven sigmoid colon cancer.
  • Non metastatic pathologically proven rectal cancer.
  • Patient continent for stool.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients with American Society of Anesthesiologist (ASA) score 4 and 5.
  • Patients with cardiac or chest problems that cannot withstand insufflation.
  • Unresectable tumors (defined as those who cannot be resected without a high likelihood of leaving microscopic or gross residual disease at the local site because of tumor adherence or fixation).
  • Obstructed or perforated cancer.
  • Patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.
  • Incontinent patients.
