Study Arms (2)

Conventional LAPR

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients undergoing conventional laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection (LAPR).

Procedure: LAPR

LAPR-TILT

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients undergoing LAPR with transabdominal individualized levator transection (TILT).

Procedure: LAPR-TILT

Interventions

LAPRPROCEDURE

Patients undergoing conventional LAPR, the common surgical procedure to treat low rectal cancer ≤5m from anal verge.

Conventional LAPR
LAPR-TILTPROCEDURE

Patients undergoing LAPR-TILT, a modified APR procedure that is supposed to be safer and less invasive as compared to the LAPR.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 80 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients diagnosed as having rectal cancer ≤5cm from anal verge by colonoscopy.
  • Patients undergoing elective, radial surgery with no distant metastasis.
  • Patients with Body Mass Index (BMI) between 18-30kg/m2.
  • Patients who agree to undergo standard adjuvant treatment after surgery.
  • Patients who have fully understood the aim of the trial and have signed the written informed consent.
