Rectal Cancer
Conditions
Brief summary
The Intersphincteric resection (ISR) technique is an alternative for anal preservation in ultra-low rectal cancer. The transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) technique might compensate for the deficiencies of ISR in terms of tumor spillage and poor surgical field exposure. Thus, the investigators perform ISR through a transanal endoscopic approach (taE-ISR), seeking to evaluate the value of this innovative technique in anal preservation in ultra-low rectal cancer.
Interventions
perform ISR using laparoscopy through transanal port
