Abstract Background: This study aimed to evaluate the short- and long-term outcomes after laparoscopic resection for low rectal cancer (LRC) compared with mid/high rectal cancer (M/HRC). Methods: Patients with rectal cancer undergoing laparoscopic resection with curative intent were retrospectively reviewed between 2009 and 2015. After matched 1:1 by using propensity score analysis, perioperative and oncological outcomes were compared between LRC and M/HRC groups. Multivariate analysis was performed to identify independent factors of overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). Results: Of 373 patients who met the criteria for inclusion, 260 patients were matched for the analysis. Laparoscopic surgery for LRC required longer operative time (P<0.001) and more blood loss volume (P<0.001) compared with M/HRC, and the LRC group tended to have a higher incidence of postoperative complications (18.5% vs. 10.0%, P=0.051). There was no significant difference in local recurrence between the two groups (6.2% vs. 2.3%, P=0.216), whereas distant metastasis was more frequent in LRC patients compared with M/HRC (19.2% vs. 9.2%, P=0.021). The LRC group showed significantly inferior 5-year OS (78.1% vs. 88.8%, P=0.008) and DFS (76.2% vs. 89.0%, P=0.004) compared with the M/HRC group. Multivariate analysis indicated that tumor location was an independent predictor of OS (HR=2.095, 95% CI 1.142-3.843, P=0.017) and DFS (HR=2.320, 95% CI 1.251-4.303, P=0.008). Conclusion: Tumor location of the rectal cancer significantly affected the clinical and oncological outcomes after laparoscopic surgery, and it was an independent predictor of OS and DFS.

Multivariate analysis was performed to identify independent factors of overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). Results: Of 373 patients who met the criteria for inclusion, 198 patients were matched for the analysis. Laparoscopic surgery for LRC required longer operative time (P<0.001) and more blood loss volume (P=0.015) compared with M/HRC, and the LRC group tended to have a higher incidence of postoperative complications (16.2% vs. 8.1%, P=0.082). There was no significant difference in local recurrence between the two groups (9.1% vs. 4.0%, P=0.251), whereas distant metastasis was inclined to be more frequent in LRC patients compared with M/HRC (21.2% vs. 12.1%, P=0.086). The LRC group showed significantly inferior 5-year OS (77.0% vs. 86.4%, P=0.033) and DFS (71.2% vs. 86.2%, P=0.017) compared with the M/HRC group. Multivariate analysis indicated that tumor location was an independent predictor of DFS (HR=2.305, 95% CI 1.203-4.417, P=0.012). Conclusion: Tumor location of the rectal cancer significantly affected the clinical and oncological outcomes after laparoscopic surgery, and it was an independent predictor of DFS.

620 Background: One of the reasons for avoiding sphincter-preserving surgery for lower rectal cancer is difficulty in obtaining a sufficient distal margin. Short-course radiotherapy (SRT) with immediate surgery is not expected to reduce tumor volume, and currently available evidence suggests that it does not increase the sphincter-preservation rate. However, SRT with delayed surgery has been linked to downsizing of the primary tumor during the waiting period. We evaluated the feasibility of sphincter-preserving surgery for T3 lower rectal cancer after SRT with delayed surgery and examined whether a distal margin of ≤ 5 mm has an impact on oncologic outcomes. Methods: We retrospectively studied 161 consecutive patients with lower rectal cancer located below the peritoneum reflection who underwent radical surgery with total mesorectum resection (TME) 3 to 4 weeks after the completion of SRT. The median follow-up was 53.5 months. Results: Sphincter-preserving surgery was performed in 149 (92.5%) of the 161 patients. The procedures were as follows: double-stapling technique, 58 patients; intersphincteric resection, 91; abdominoperineal resection, 10; and Hartmann operation, 2. Among the patients who underwent sphincter-preserving surgery, the distal margin was ≤ 5 mm in 41 patients and > 5 mm in 108. The local recurrence rate was respectively 5.8% vs. 10.4% (p = 0.606), the recurrence-free survival 83.4% vs. 82.8% (p = 0.682), and the overall survival at 5 years 82.3% vs. 87.6% (p = 0.418). Our results suggested that there is no difference in long-term outcomes between a distal margin of ≤ 5 mm and > 5 mm. Conclusions: Sphincter-preserving surgery was performed in 92.5% of patients with T3 lower rectal cancer who received SRT with delayed surgery. Our results confirmed the long-term oncologic feasibility of sphincter-preserving surgery with a distal margin of ≤ 5 mm; there was no negative impact on long-term outcomes such as local recurrence, recurrence-free survival, and overall survival.
