Summary

This study looks at two ways to remove rectal cancer using minimally invasive surgery. One method removes the tumor through the anus, avoiding extra cuts in the belly. The other uses a small belly cut. Researchers want to see if the newer method leads to fewer wound problems and less pain. About 190 adults who had rectal cancer surgery between 2017 and 2023 will be included.
