Brief Summary: RATIONALE A coloanal anastomosis may be effective in restoring bowel function after radiation therapy and surgery to remove the rectum It is not yet known whether a J-pouch coloanal anastomosis is more effective than a side-to-end coloanal anastomosis in restoring bowel function in patients with rectal adenocarcinoma who have undergone radiation therapy and surgery to remove the rectum

PURPOSE This randomized phase III trial is studying how well J-pouch coloanal anastomosis works compared to side-to-end coloanal anastomosis in treating patients with rectal adenocarcinoma who have undergone radiation therapy and surgery to remove the rectum
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Compare functional outcome in patients with mid- or distal rectal adenocarcinoma when treated with J-pouch coloanal anastomosis vs side-to-end coloanal anastomosis after preoperative radiotherapy and total mesorectal excision

Secondary

Compare the quality of life of patients treated with these procedures
Compare anorectal function in patients treated with these procedures

OUTLINE This is a randomized multicenter study Patients are stratified according to participating center and gender Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms

Arm I Patients undergo total mesorectal excision followed by a J-pouch coloanal anastomosis
Arm II Patients undergo total mesorectal excision followed by a side-to-end coloanal anastomosis

In both arms patients receive a temporary ileostomy The ileostomy is closed after 1 week provided recovery is uneventful and no radiological signs of anastomotic leakage are detected If early closure is not possible the ileostomy is closed after 6-8 weeks

Functional outcome quality of life and anorectal function are assessed before surgery and at 4 and 12 months after surgery

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A minimum of 100 patients 50 per treatment arm will be accrued for this study
