Abstract: Laparoscopic TME is a good option for women and for men treated by coloanal anastomosis. Technical improvement of laparoscopic stapling is needed before the laparoscopic approach can be offered to all patients.

“…The distal margin positivity rates were also not different between laparoscopic and open rectal surgery (Anderson et al, 2008). However, it should be noted that a clear distal margin can be of an issue in laparoscopic resections of the lower third of the rectum, especially in male patients (Laurent et al, 2007).…”

“…Since anastomotic leakage is a highly morbid complication in some patients, a protecting stoma is still recommended in low anterior resection regardless of the surgical procedure used, according to some studies 9,45) . Anastomotic leakage has a negative prognostic impact for local recurrence after restorative resection of rectal carcinoma.…”

“…It is important is to preserve the parasympathetic sacral nerve roots from S2 to S4. Dissection proceeds down to the pelvic floor [75][76][77][78][79][80][81][82][83][84][85][86][87][88].…”

“…The rectum is transected at the level of the pelvic floor by means of a roticulating endostapler device [75][76][77][78][79][80][81][82][83][84][85][86][87][88], using as few cartridges as possible. Use of more than two cartridges has been reported to result in a higher anastomotic leakage rate [89,90].…”
