Primary or secondary implantation of the Erlangen magnetic stoma seal in case of colostomy or ileostomy is technically simple, although it requires a critical selection of patients and careful surgical technique. The best follow-up of the operated cases should be in the special protological clinics in the hands of stoma therapists. About 15% of the cases meet local complications and therefore the magnet-ring is explanted. An ideal continence is not always achieved. We hope that these patients can be better helped with magnetic stoma seal through further development.

Background: Low anterior resection (LAR) is the gold standard for curative cancer treatment in the middle and upper rectum. In radically operated patients, the local recurrence rates with total mesorectal excision (TME) after 5 and 10 years was<10%, with 80% in 5 years survival. Anastomotic leakage (AL) affects 4%-20% of patients who underwent LAR.

Purpose: Debate persists regarding the feasibility of adopting an organ-preserving strategy as the treatment modality for clinical T2N0 rectal cancer. This study aimed to compare the outcomes of attempting organ-preserving strategies versus radical surgery in patients with clinical T2N0 mid to low rectal cancer.
Methods: Patients diagnosed with clinical T2N0 rectal cancer, with lesions located within 8 cm from the anal verge as determined by pre-treatment magnetic resonance imaging between January 2010 and December 2020 were included.

Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the effectiveness of MRI navigation surgery, including lateral pelvic lymph node dissection (LLND), after chemoradiotherapy for patients with middle to low rectal cancer.
- The analysis included 43 patients who underwent laparoscopic radical surgery post-CRT, showing a 100% local pelvic recurrence-free survival rate compared to 85.1% in a previous patient group not using MRI navigation.
- The findings suggest that using MRI guidance can enhance local control and maintain better functional outcomes for rectal cancer patients post-treatment.
