| Core Tip |
Distal mesorectal excision is difficult in male patients with low rectal cancers, especially with a bulky tumor. We explored the application of simple instruments including modified retractors and an anal dilator with a papilionaceous fixture to perform transanal total mesorectal excision (taTME) in male patients with low rectal cancer. Our results showed that the modified approach with taTME achieved a shorter operative time and better quality of mesorectal excision as compared with the classical approach. This procedure may be an effective and economical alternative for taTME when a giant tumor is encountered in patients with low rectal cancer. |
