Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • The total number of lymph nodes retrieved

    During the surgery

  • The positive number of lymph nodes retrieved

    During the surgery

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • The duration of the operation to remove the lymph nodes

    During the surgery

  • Detection rate of indocyanine green-positive para-aortic lymph node

    During the surgery

Study Arms (2)

Lymphadenectomy without indocyanine green injection

NO INTERVENTION

Laparoscopic lymphadenectomy will be performed in a standard way.

Lymphadenectomy with indocyanine green injection

EXPERIMENTAL

Injection of indocyanine green to the submucosal layer around rectal cancer 1 day before surgery. Laparoscopic proctectomy with lymph nodes dissection will be performed under near-infrared imaging.

Drug: Indocyanine Green

Interventions

Indocyanine Green will be injected to the submucosal layer around the lesion one day before surgery.
