In Japan, lateral lymph node dissection combined with total mesorectal excision remains the standard surgical procedure for patients with advanced lower rectal carcinoma, and lateral lymph node dissection by laparoscopy is still an unexplored frontier. To examine the technical and oncological feasibility of laparoscopic surgery for rectal carcinoma, a phase II trial will be conducted in patients with a preoperative diagnosis of stage 0/I rectal carcinoma, under the direction of the Japan Society of Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery, to which leading hospitals in laparoscopic surgery for colorectal carcinoma in Japan are members.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '75 Years', 'minimumAge': '20 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
