This paper introduces Professor 's experience in treating low anterior resection syndrome (LARS) of rectal cancer. Based on the clinical experience in treating fecal incontinence after rectal cancer surgery, Professor proposes that the primary pathogenesis of LARS is spleen-kidney deficiency with internal obstruction of damp turbidity. The treatment approach should focus on strengthening the spleen, warming the kidney, and eliminating turbidity. The Baliao acupoints are specifically selected to eliminate turbidity, promote , facilitate the flow of the viscera, and regulate the opening and closing of the anus. Emphasis is placed on deep needling at the Baliao acupoints, with flexible acupoint selection based on accompanying symptoms. Additionally, moxibustion and bloodletting cupping are used to restore regular bowel movements and improve the quality of life for patients who have undergone anus-preserving surgery for rectal cancer.
