Stoma-Free Survival Following Low Anterior Resection with Coloanal Anastomosis for Stage II-III Rectal Cancer

Coloanal anastomosis in the total neoadjuvant therapy era resulted in favorable 5-year stoma-free survival. Body mass index ≥ 35 kg/m2 handsewn coloanal anastomosis with mucosectomy, and local recurrence were associated with worse stoma-free survival. See Video Abstract.

Abstract

Coloanal anastomosis in the total neoadjuvant therapy era resulted in favorable 5-year stoma-free survival. Body mass index ≥ 35 kg/m2 handsewn coloanal anastomosis with mucosectomy, and local recurrence were associated with worse stoma-free survival. See Video Abstract.
