Abstract

Lap-AR is a technically feasible, safe, and effective method for treating patients with rectal cancer. A BMI>25 kg/m(2) and the T factor related to operative blood loss and operative time, respectively. Assessment of high BMI and, in particular, advanced tumor depth, should alert surgeons to the increased technical difficulty of Lap-AR.
