| Popis: | Background and Objectives The incidence of locoregional recurrences (LR) following radical surgery of rectal cancer varies from 5% to 30% according to the literature. The purpose of this prospective study was to compare the outcome of the Abdomino-Perineal Excision (APE) vs. the Anterior Resection (AR) in a consecutive series of 188 patients who underwent surgery for cure from 1980 to the end of 1992 (81 APE and 107 AR), followed for 5 years, evaluating their influence on the incidence of the recurrences. Methods The patients were enrolled at random in the two surgical groups, provided that a radical excision of the tumour, with only two limits: the level of the lesion from the anal verge and the presence of a severe incontinence instrumentally proven. TNM, Dukes staging, grading, and tumour location were statistically evaluated. Further primary suture vs. packing of the perineal wound in APE and handsewn vs. stapled anastomosis in AR were compared in relation with the incidence of LR. Results The overall local recurrence rate was 19.2% (32/167), in details 19.7% for APE and 18.5% for AR. Similar recurrence rates were observed following both procedures, matching the patients according to the Dukes stage and different details of techniques. A slight statistically significant difference was found as far as the tumour location is concerned in the group treated with anterior resection (p = |
