What is rectal cancer?

Rectal cancer is a type of cancer that starts in the cells of the rectum. The rectum is the last part of the large intestine, just before the anus. It often begins as abnormal growths called polyps, which can develop into cancer over time.

Symptoms of Rectal Cancer:

Rectal Cancer Removal Operation By
Dr. Harsh Shah

Low anterior resection

Low-anterior resection

If the rectal cancer is at least 3 cm away from the start of the anus, the surgeon can save the sphincter muscle, which controls bowel movements. They can then make a connection so that stool can pass out of the body in the normal way. This operation requires special tools called staplers and careful surgical skills. Sometimes, they can do a type of surgery called inter-sphincteric resection.
Abdomino perineal resection

Abdomino-perineal resection

When the tumor is in the very lower part of the rectum, it's often not possible to save the anus. The surgeon will remove the tumor and the anus to stop cancer from coming back in that area. They will make an opening in the abdominal wall, called an end sigmoid colostomy, for poop to come out.
Colostomy

Colostomy

When a tumor has grown large enough to block the passage inside the intestine, the surgeon might have to do a surgery to reroute the stool temporarily. This operation is known as creating a stoma. It's generally done for a short period.

Types of Robotic Surgeries for Rectal Cancer Treatment

Robotic surgery has transformed the way rectal cancer is treated, giving surgeons better accuracy, control, and the ability to see more clearly. Here are some common types of robotic surgeries used for treating rectal cancer:

1

Robot-Assisted Low Anterior Resection (LAR)

In this surgery, the part of the rectum containing cancer is removed, while preserving the muscles controlling bowel movements.

2

Robot-Assisted Abdominoperineal Resection (APR)

APR is performed when the cancer is very close to the anus, necessitating the removal of the anus and creating a permanent opening for stool to exit the body (colostomy).

3

Transanal Total Mesorectal Excision (TaTME)
