Shorter residual inferior mesenteric artery stump length on objective CT measurement is associated with improved oncological outcomes in rectal cancer surgery: A propensity score matched analysis
In contrast to other studies, our study has used objective measurements to show an association between central IMA transection and improved oncological outcomes. This association is preserved on multivariable analysis of the propensity score matched cohort.
