Özet

BACKGROUND: Circumferential margin positivity and tumor perforations are the main reasons for the poor oncological outcome following standard abdominoperineal excision for low rectal cancer. The extralevator abdominoperineal excision approach has been developed to avoid "coning down" or "surgical waisting"; however, surgical education in this area has been neglected.
