Core Tip	This retrospective cohort study developed nomogram to predict technical difficulty prior to laparoscopic sphincter-preserving radical resection for rectal cancer. Significant predictive factors were identified through multivariate logistic regression, which including surgical approach using laparoscopic intersphincteric dissection (L-ISR), intraoperative preventive ostomy, the sacrococcygeal distance, and the anterior-posterior diameter of pelvic inlet / sacrococcygeal distance. The nomogram’s clinical value lies in enabling surgeons to preoperatively evaluate expected difficulty and customize surgical approaches accordingly. It aids in individualized surgical planning.
