Abdominoperineal resection (APR) remains the standard procedure for rectal cancer located within 0.5 cm from dentate line (DL). In this study, we present a new type of restorative surgery: intersphincteric resection with partial removal of external anal sphincter (EAS) and anorectal reconstruction for ultra low rectal cancer. Between March 2003 and May 2008 fifty patients (28 males, aged between 39 and 71) were operated on for ultra low rectal cancer uT2-3N0M0 with partial preservation of EAS and total anorectal reconstruction (smoothmuscle neosphincter and colonic pouch). A protective stoma was performed in all cases. Functional outcome and quality of life were recorded at 3,6,12,18,24 months after stoma closure using Wexner score and FIQL respectively. Anal manometry, vectrum volumetry and myography data were taken as well. Results. Postoperative complications developed in 2 patients, but no secondary surgery was required. Carcinomas were staged as pT2 (n=14) and pT3 (n=36). The distal clearan - ce was 2.00.4(range 1.5-2.8)cm, lateral clearance was 0.80.3(range 0.2-1.4)cm. After a median follow-up of 24 (range 2-61) months, 2 local recurrences were occurred and salvaged by APR. Contractive activity of saved elements of EAS improved with a course of time and squeezing anal pressure increased as well. Perfect functional outcome was achieved in 25 of 34 patients at 12 months after stoma closure, and all the patients were satisfied with procedure. Good functional results of suggested surgery seems to be an acceptable alternative to APR with permanent stoma in selected patients.

Purpose: To evaluate the functional outcome of sphincter-preserving rectal resection for low rectal cancer. Materials and Methods: From April 2009 to January 2016, there are 52 patients who underwent sphincter-preserving rectal resection with total mesorectal excision with low rectal cancer (<6cm from the anal verge) at Hue Central Hospital, Hue, Vietnam. Results: the average age 62.7 ± 12.8, the distance of tumor from anal verge include four group (≤ 3cm 1.9%; 3 to ≤ 4cm 17.3%; 4 to ≤ 5cm 34.6%; > 5 cm). T stage T1/ T2/T3: 1.9%/28.8%/69.2%. The following time is 33.8 ± 18.9 month. Overall recurrence was 13/18(27.1%), local recurrence was 5 (10.4%). Total survival was 40.5 ± 2.9 month. Technique: intersphincteric preservation 14 (26.9%), low anterior resection 17 (32.7%) and pull-through procedure 21 (40.4%). The distance of anatomosis from anal verge: from 1 to ≤ 2 cm:14 (26.9%); from 2 to ≤ 3cm: 21 (40.4%); from 3 to ≤ 4 cm: 17 (32.7%). Bowels movement of 3 month: 4.7 ± 3.2 and 12th month: 2.7 ± 1.6 (p< 0.01). Conclusions: Sphincterpreserving rectal resection using may provide a good continence and oncologic safety. The patients are acceptable with the results of functional outcomes. Key words: Low rectal cancer, sphincter-preserving
