  4. 24. Rectal cancer surgery : Defunctioning stoma, anastomotic leakage and postoperative monitoring

    Abstract : The understanding of the mesorectal spread in rectal cancer has lead to wide acceptance of total mesorectal excision (TME) as the surgical technique of choice for carcinoma in the lower and mid rectum. While oncological results and survival have improved with TME-surgery, morbidity and mortality remain important issues. READ MORE
