Brief Summary:
This study aims to compare the postoperative outcomes of low rectal cancer patients who underwent surgery with Natural Orifice Specimen Extraction (NOSE) versus traditional Pfannenstiel extraction.
Detailed Description:
Natural Orifice Specimen Extraction (NOSE) in colorectal surgery allows the extraction of the surgical specimen through the anal orifice. Several studies demonstrated improved postoperative pain, bowel movements, patient-reported cosmetic satisfaction, and psychological wellbeing after NOSE compared with traditional Pfannenstiel extraction. However, most of these studies focused on colon surgery. The aim of this retrospective propensity score matched study is to investigate the postoperative outcomes of NOSE in low rectal cancer surgery, classified according to the English National Low Rectal Cancer Development Programme (LOREC).
