NCT04078828

Brief Summary

The anastomotic leakage remains the major early complication after laparoscopic anterior resection(LAR) for medium \& low rectal cancer. Pelvic floor reconstruction (PR) is a key step in various standard resections for open radical rectal cancer surgery, which was considered to be helpful for decreasing the rate of leakage. However, PR in endoscopic LAR surgery is not routine practice and remains controversial. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of PR during LAR for mid/low rectal carcinoma, especially in preventing anastomotic leakage.
