Abstract AIM: The feasibility and outcome of sphincter-saving resection for rectal cancer were assessed in patients previously treated by high-dose radiotherapy for prostate cancer. METHOD: Between 2000 and 2012, 1066 patients underwent rectal excision for rectal cancer. Of these, 236...
Abstract BACKGROUND: The last 30 years have witnessed a significant increase in the diagnosis of early-stage rectal cancer and the development of new strategies to reduce the treatment-related morbidity. Currently, there is no consensus on the definition of early rectal cancer...
Abstract OBJECTIVE: Oncologic and functional outcomes were compared between transanal and transabdominal specimen extraction after laparoscopic coloanal anastomosis for rectal cancer. BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic coloanal anastomosis is an attractive new surgical option in patients with low rectal cancer because laparotomy is...
Abstract BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic sphincter preservation for low rectal cancer is challenging because of the high risk of positive circumferential resection margin. We hypothesized that perineal dissection of the distal rectum may improve quality of surgery, compared with the conventional abdominal...
Abstract Bubble-enhanced heating (BEH) may be exploited to improve the heating efficiency of high-intensity focused ultrasound in liver and to protect tissues located beyond the focal point. The objectives of this study, performed in ex vivo pig liver, were (i)...
