Core Tip |
Transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) allows patients even with ultra-low rectal cancer to be treated with sphincter-saving surgery. However, low rectal cancer resection with sphincter preservation may lead to a positive distal resection margin (DRM), with a high risk for local recurrence. Confocal laser endomicroscopy (CLE) enables the real-time, in vivo optical biopsy of living tissue. Real-time in vivo probe-based CLE examination can provide optical biopsy and is feasible and safe for selecting the DRM during TaTME for low rectal cancer. |
