Aims.To evaluate the impact of body mass index (BMI) on the surgical outcome of laparoscopic total mesorectal excision (laTME) for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC, clinically staged as UICC stage II/III) after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT).Methods.312 LARC patients undergoing laTME after nCRT were divided into nonobese (BMI < 25.0 kg/m2,n=249) and obese (BMI ≥ 25.0 kg/m2,n=63) groups. Preoperative radiotherapy was delivered in 45–50.4 Gy/25f, 5 days/week, and concurrent chemotherapy using FOLFOX or CapeOX. Technical feasibility, postoperative and oncological outcome were compared between groups.Results.Obese patients had significantly longer operative time (P=0.004). There was no significant difference regarding estimated blood loss, conversion, postoperative recovery, and morbidities. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that higher ASA score and abdominoperineal resection were risk factors for postoperative complications and diverting stoma was a protective factor. The length of resection margin, circumferential resection margin involvement, and number of lymph node retrieved were comparable. With a median follow-up time of 55 months (ranging 20–102 months), oncological outcome was comparable in terms of overall survival, local recurrence, and distant metastasis.Conclusions.Obesity does not affect surgical or oncological outcome of laTME after nCRT. LaTME may be feasible and safe to obese LARC patients after nCRT in a specialized center.

RATIONAL: In the treatment of colorectal cancer, from 1982 Heald proposed standardization of the total mesorectal excision, with a significant reduction in the recurrence rate. But the treatment of lower rectal lesions is still a challenge. AIM: To describe the association of robotic low anterior resection- TATA (Transanal Abdominal Transanal Resection), with transanal access using Transanal Endoscopic Operations - TEO in the treatment of lower rectal cancer. METHOD: The TATA performs robotic abdominal approach and the TEO performs the perineal approach, developing total mesorectal excision (TME) transanally (TaETM). RESULT: The TaETM technique was applied in a woman with rectal adenocarcinoma 5 cm from the anal verge that had been submitted to chemoradiation. The procedure was performed with satisfatory operative time and favorable oncological outcome (grade 3 mesorectal excision). CONCLUSION: This is a promising minimally invasive procedure in the armamentarium of rectal cancer treatment, specially in challenging scenarios such as narrow pelvis, obesity and very low rectal tumors.

Introduction: The laparoscopic approach for TME is proven to be non-inferior in oncological outcome compared to open surgery. Anatomical limitations in the male and obese pelvis with resulting pathological shortcomings and high conversion rates were stimuli for alternative approaches. The transanal approach for TME (TaTME) was introduced to overcome these limitations. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of TaTME for mid and low rectal cancer at our center. Methods: TaTME is a hybrid procedure of simultaneously laparoscopic and transanal mesorectal excision. A retrospective analysis of all consecutive TaTME procedures performed at our center for mid and low rectal cancer between December 2014 and January 2020 was conducted. Results: A total of 157 patients underwent TaTME, with 72.6% receiving neoadjuvant chemoradiation. Mean tumor height was 6.1 ± 2.3 cm from the anal verge, 72.6% of patients had undergone neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy, and 34.2% of patients presented with a threatened CRM upon pretherapeutic MRI. Abdominal conversion rate was 5.7% with no conversion for the transanal dissection. Early anastomotic leakage occurred in 7.0% of the patients. Mesorectum specimen was complete in 87.3%, R1 resection rate was 4.5% (involved distal resection margin) and in 7.6%, the CRM was positive. The three-year local recurrence rate of 58 patients with a follow-up ≥ 36 months was 3.4%. Overall survival was 92.0% after 12 months, and 82.2% after 36 months. Conclusion: TaTME can be performed safely with acceptable long-term oncological outcome. Low rectal cancer can be well addressed by TaTME, which is an appropriate alternative with low conversion, local recurrence, adequate mesorectal quality and CRM positivity rates.

Since the introduction of ventral mesh rectopexy for rectal prolapse, concern exists as to how this may interfere with subsequent rectal cancer surgery. To our knowledge, this is the first report of total mesorectal excision for cancer after such a rectopexy. We discuss surgical technique, pitfalls encountered and oncological outcome.

Contexte : L’exérèse totale du mésorectum par voie transanale (TaTME) pour la prise en charge du cancer du rectum est récemment apparue comme alternative à l’exérèse totale du mésorectum par voie abdominale. Cependant, certaines inquiétudes à propos des résultats oncologiques de cette technique chirurgicale ont émergé. Le but de cette étude était d’évaluer le taux de récidives locales après TaTME. Les objectifs secondaires s’intéressaient à la mortalité postopératoire, au taux de fistule anastomotique et au taux de stomie définitive. Méthodes : Les données de tous les patients opérés par TaTME ont été rapportées et comparées aux données issues des registres nationaux norvégiens de cancers colorectaux (NCCR) et de chirurgie gastro-intestinale (NoRGast). Les taux de récidive locale étaient estimés selon Kaplan-Meier. Résultats : En Norvège, 157 patients ont été opérés par TaTME pour un cancer du rectum entre octobre 2014 et octobre 2018. Trois des sept centres hospitaliers participants ont abandonné la réalisation de cette intervention après cinq procédures. Le taux de récidive locale était de 12 sur 157 patients (7,6 %) ; huit récidives locales étaient multifocales ou étendues. Le taux de récidive locale après un suivi de à 2,4 ans était estimé à 11,6 % (IC 95 % : [6,6‒19,9]) après TaTME contre 2,4 % (IC 95 % : [1,4‒4,4]) dans le registre NCCR (p < 0,001). Le hasard ratio était estimé à 6,71 (IC 95 % : [2,94‒15,32]). Le taux de fistule anastomotique nécessitant une réintervention était de 8,4 % dans le groupe TaTME contre 4,5 % dans le registre NoRGast (p = 0,047). Cinquante-six patients (35,7 %) étaient porteurs d’une stomie à la fin du suivi, dont 39 (24,8 %) étaient définitives. Conclusion : Le taux de fistule anastomotique était plus élevé après TaTME en comparaison aux données des registres nationaux norvégiens. Le taux de récidive locale ainsi que les caractéristiques de cette récidive après TaTME étaient défavorables.

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
