Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Success rate of operation

    Whether it is necessary to switch to other surgical methods

    1 years after the surgery

Study Arms (1)

Flexible colonoscope assisted taTME group

Flexible colonoscope assisted hybrid transanal total mesorectal resection (taTME) group

Procedure: Flexible colonoscope assisted hybrid transanal total mesorectal resection

Interventions

Endoscopic pursestring suture (EPSS) was performed at the distance from 1cm to the inferior edge of the tumor by a double-channel flexible colonoscope. An endoloop was inserted through one channel. Meanwhile, the endoclips was inserted through the other channel one by one to fix the endoloop around the rectal wall. And then the endoloop was tightened slowly. After completing the routine lavage lumen, a full-thickness, circumferential dissection was performed by flexible colonoscope following taTME surgical principle until it converged with the laparoscopy group.
