Abstract

Total mesorectal excision(TME) has become the standardized modality in rectal cancer surgery. The strict quality control of surgery has been introduced. The improvement of surgery quality resulted in the decrease of local recurrence rate and the increase of survival rate. TME becomes the model that quality control of surgery improved outcomes. In view of this, in recent years, complete mesocolic excision (CME) and extralevator abdominoperineal excision (ELAPE) have been established as the corresponding standardized procedures, which shows the preliminary clinical effects. Utilization of laparoscopic surgery for management of colorectal cancer has been widely accepted. Laparoscopic TME and CME will further improve the overall outcomes of colorectal cancer.
