Laparoscopic surgery has been increasingly used in rectal cancer surgery. Though there are still some controversies, most of the research results support that the outcome is similar for rectal cancer patients with either laparoscopic or open surgery, in term of short-term such as safety and efficacy and long-term such as oncologic outcome. Standardization of laparoscopic training together with the comprehensive management concept are the prerequisites of laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery. Those doctors who do minimally invasive surgery should follow the rationale that smaller incision and sphincter preservation are secondary to safety and oncological result of the patients. It is the comprehensive management and personalized treatment that bring opportunities for the continuous development and innovation of innovative technologies and concepts, for example, non-operative treatment, endoscopic therapy, natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery, single incision laparoscopic surgery, and robotic surgery. And they may finally lead to better outcome and quality of life for the patients.

A 66-year-old woman presented with discharge of necrotic tissue and bleeding from the vagina during uterine cancer screening. She was diagnosed with lower rectal cancer cT4b(vagina)N3M0, cStage Ⅲc. As the tumor protruded into the lumen from the posterior vaginal wall, preservation of the anterior vaginal wall was challenging.

We investigated the short-term outcomes of robot-assisted surgery for rectal cancer in our department. Among 98 cases of colorectal cancer who underwent robot-assisted surgery between October 2019 and December 2023, 91 cases of rectal cancer surgery using the da Vinci X surgical system® were included, and clinicopathological and surgical outcomes were examined. The patients included 58 males and 33 females, with a median age of 71 years.

Background: The infiltration of lateral lymph nodes (LLN) plays a crucial role in the staging and treatment of individuals with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). This meta-analysis aimed to compare the efficacy of extended mesorectal excision (eTME) versus traditional mesorectal excision (TME-alone) in patients with clinically enlarged (LLN) concomitant neoadjuvant chemoradiation.
Methods: This study is registered with PROSPERO (CRD42023457805).

This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of electroencephalographic (EEG) biofeedback therapy in reducing anxiety levels and improving overall well-being among patients diagnosed with rectal cancer. A randomised controlled trial was conducted with 150 patients with rectal cancer who were randomly assigned to either the intervention group (n = 75) or the control group (n = 75). The intervention group received 16 sessions of EEG biofeedback therapy over 8 weeks, whereas the control group received standard care.
