This study is designed to compare the short-term and long-term benefits between conventional laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection (APR) and laparoscopic APR with transabdominal individualized levator transection (TILT).
In the field of surgical treatment for low rectal cancer, the traditional APR is trapped by the so-called "surgical waist" and associated oncological problems, whereas the spread of extra-levator abdominoperineal resection (ELAPR) is still hindered by its high risk of wound complications and neurovascular injuries. Owing to the advancement of laparoscopic techniques, the investigators developed a laparoscopic APR with TILT procedure. During the procedure, a controlled incision of levators into the ischiorectal fat was performed transabdominally under direct vision; the meeting plane is therefore lowered and the perineal dissection is simplified without changing body position. This technique offers individualized transection of levator muscles, minimizes the risk of wound complications and prevents surgical waist to ensure oncological safety. This clinical trial is designed to evaluate the short-term and long-term benefits of this modified procedure.
