title: [Surgical treatment of distally located rectal carcinomas using the rendez-vous method--a laparoscopic resection in combination with T.E.M].
abstract: The aim of this work is to introduce a surgical procedure, which would make operations of distally located rectal carcinomas indicated for abdominoperineal extirpation of the rectum possible while maintaining intestinal continence and full functioning of the sphincter system. At the same time, we have aimed at the maximum use of all pros of contemporary miniinvasive surgical techniques. We have labelled our proposed surgical technique the "rendez-vous technique". The trial group includes the original group of 10 patients, who have been operated in our clinic since April 2004, using the rendez-vous technique. We are aware of the fact, that the trial group is small, however we believe that this trial group is the starting group, which will continue to enlarge and that it will bring results to the patients themselves, as well as for a valid prospective study in order to confirm or challenge the proposed method's effectiveness.
