Abstract

Introduction. To evaluate the results of laparoscopic surgery for low rectal cancer and the prevalence of lung metastasis at Thanh Nhan hospital from January 2016 to June 2018. Research method. Descriptive retrospective study. Results and Discussion. 31 cases of rectal cancer were treated with laparoscopy. Rate of male / female = 17/14, Average age was 63.7 ± 6.2, the most common cases was in the group over 60 years old. The clinical symptoms were various, not specific.
