Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Age range: 18 to 80 years old, gender not restricted; 2. Rectal adenocarcinoma confirmed by histopathological examination; 3. The lower edge of the rectal tumor is no more than 10 cm away from the anal margin; 4. The clinical stage of the tumor meets the following criteria: (1) cT1-cT3 (not invading the rectal mesenteric fascia); (2) N0-N1, or N2 that can be surgically removed after assessment; (3) M0 (no distant metastasis). 5. The patients were evaluated by the researchers to be suitable for radical resection of rectal cancer using surgical robots (including preoperative neoadjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy); 6. Before the operation, the researchers evaluated that the postoperative patients had sufficient organ functions; 7. Agree to participate in this study and voluntarily sign the informed consent form; 8. Willing to cooperate in completing the follow-up and related examinations, with good compliance; 9. ASA classification: grades I–III.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Patients with severe diseases of the heart, lungs, brain, liver or kidneys who cannot tolerate surgery or anesthesia; 2. Patients who cannot tolerate pneumoperitoneum or who, based on the investigator's judgment, have a high risk of extensive and severe adhesions in the abdominal cavity and are therefore unable to undergo puncture and establishment of pneumoperitoneum; 3. Patients with severe coagulation dysfunction who cannot tolerate surgery; 4. Patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis; 5. Individuals with severe uncontrolled diseases or acute infections; those with severe physical weakness, large amounts of peritoneal effusion, internal bleeding or shock; 6. Patients with distant metastasis of the tumor (cM1) or extensive invasion of adjacent organs (cT4b); 7. Patients who require emergency surgery due to acute intestinal obstruction, massive hemorrhage; 8. In addition to rectal tumors, there are also multiple primary colon tumors that require surgical treatment; 9. Patients with other specific intestinal diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease and familial adenomatous polyposis, who have been assessed as unsuitable for surgery; 10. Patients with a history of abdominal or pelvic surgeries or radiotherapy and chemotherapy who are not suitable for surgery; 11. Pregnant and lactating women; 12. Patients who are currently participating in other clinical trials of drugs or devices; 13. The researchers identified patients who were not suitable for participating in this trial.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Perioperative complication rate (Clavien-Dindo classification);

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Tumor resection quality indicators (including the integrity of the TME after mesorectal resection, the positive rate of CRM at the circumferential resection margin, the maximum diameter of the tumor, etc.);Safety and efficacy indicators 30 days after surgery (including the incidence of various postoperative complications, anastomotic leakage rate after surgery, reoperation rate within 30 days after surgery, etc.);Intraoperative surgical quality indicators (including surgical conversion rate, mechanical arm Docking time, total operation time, etc.);
