A combined abdominoperineal approach is described in which not only coloanal anastomosis but also bowel transection were performed through the anus. It is most suitable for cancer located 4 to 6 cm from the anal verge. The main advantages of the technique are precise lines of bowel transection with desired distal clearance of tumor, and easier and safer mobilization of the distal end of the rectum during the abdominal phase of the procedure.

Abstract
A combined abdominoperineal approach is described in which not only coloanal anastomosis but also bowel transection were performed through the anus. It is most suitable for cancer located 4 to 6 cm from the anal verge. The main advantages of the technique are precise lines of bowel transection with desired distal clearance of tumor, and easier and safer mobilization of the distal end of the rectum during the abdominal phase of the procedure.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
