Journal Title: Turkish Journal of Colorectal Disease - Year 2019, Vol 29, Issue 1
Abstract
Rectal cancers comprise approximately 1/3 of colorectal cancers. Tumors tha treach the submucosa on the rectum wall but do not overcome the submucosa are called early rectal cancers. T1 and T2 early-stage rectal cancers can be treated by transanal local excision. In this case report we present a 64-year old patient with a vegetating mass, 6 cm from anal verge, diagnosed with intramucosal adenocarcinoma. The suggested operational procedure was abdominoperineal resection, which she did not consent and referred to our clinic. She was performed a transanal resection the tumor using an Endo-GİA stapler.
