[Specifics of sphincter-preserving surgery in patients with extensive colorectal carcinoma].
The results of combined abdomino-anal resection performed in 56 patients with locally extended cancer of the rectum have been evaluated. Indications for combined and organ-saving operations for extensive rectal cancers have been evolved. If the uterus and even cervix uteri and the vault of the vagina are involved, leaving the lower part of the vagina intact does not affect the radical nature of surgery. Simultaneously, this procedure assures complete rehabilitation of patients because sexual function is not impaired.
