Laparoscopic-assisted abdominoperineal resection combined with en-bloc prostatectomy using the trans-sacral approach for locally invasive rectal cancer: A case report.
Asian Journal of Endoscopic Surgery 2017 May
Laparoscopic-assisted abdominoperineal resection and en-bloc prostatectomy using the trans-sacral approach for locally invasive rectal cancer that invades only the prostate is useful in order to avoid total pelvic exenteration. The patient was a 63-year-old man with cT4b (prostate) N1M0, stage IIIC rectal cancer. Curative resection was performed. Histopathological findings did not indicate definitive invasion into the prostate gland. The patient was discharged from the hospital on postoperative day 32 with an anastomotic leak and a ureteral catheter. The patient is able to urinate and has had no cancer recurrence. Laparoscopic bladder-preserving surgery for locally invasive rectal cancer can preserve postoperative quality of life and provides oncological curability.
