- Summary:
- This video describes minimally invasive techniques for intersphincteric resection with lymph node dissection in patients with low rectal cancer. The progress in safe application of preoperative chemoradiation for distal rectal cancer has led to improved local control and an increase in the rate of anal sphincter preservation. The video first introduces the surgical anatomy of the internal and external anal sphincter and explains the indications for the minimally invasive approach in selected patients. Transabdominal and transanal procedures are then described step by step with the aim of enabling surgeons to achieve optimal functional and oncologic outcomes.
