Brief Summary:
TME (Total mesorectum excision) is the golden standard of radical resection for mid-low rectal cancer. However, the damage of pelvic autonomic nerve following with TME principle will lead to high incidence of urinary and sexual function disorder. PANP (pelvic autonomic nerve preservation) surgery played a role in decreasing incidence of urinary and sexual function disorder. However, 32%-44% patients still suffered from urinary and sexual function disorder when underwent open (O-PANP-TME) or laparoscopic PANP TME surgery (L-PANP-TME).
In the early stage of work, the investigators performed preservation of Denovilliers' fascia in L-PANP-TME to discuss the protection of urinary and sexual function of male mid-low rectal cancer patients. The results showed that preservation of Denovilliers' fascia in L-PANP-TME significantly decreased incidence of urinary and sexual function disorder. In order to further confirm the early work, the investigators design a randomized controlled clinical trial to compare differences in urinary and sexual function protection and long-term outcomes between preservation and excision of Denovilliers' fascia in L-PANP-TME.
