description Abstract Aim To clarify and evaluate the long‐term outcomes of laparoscopic surgery for clinical stage 0/I rectal carcinoma patients. Methods This single‐arm phase II trial involved accredited surgeons from 43 Japanese institutions. Patients were registered preoperatively. The planned sample size was 490. The primary endpoint was overall survival, and long‐term outcomes were evaluated. Results A total of 495 patients were registered between February 2008 and August 2010. Eight patients (1.6%) required conversion to open surgery. Sphincter‐preserving procedures were performed in 477 (97%) patients. Positive radial resection margin was found in two (0.4%) patients. Of 490 patients, 22, 314, 38, 115, and one patient had final pathological stages (p‐stage) 0, I, II, III, and IV, respectively. Pathologically, 31.4% (154/490) of the patients did not have p‐stage 0/I. The 5‐year overall survival (OS) rates in p‐stages 0, I, II, and III were 100%, 98%, 97%, and 94%, respectively. The 5‐year OS of all patients at 96.6% (95% CI 94.6‐97.9) was significantly better than the expected 5‐year OS of 81.1% (P < .0001). The 5‐year relapse‐free survival in p‐stages 0, I, II, and III were 100%, 93%, 81%, and 79%, respectively. The 5‐year relapse‐free survival of all patients was 90.1%. Fifty patients (10.2%) had recurrence; lung recurrence was found in 22 patients, local recurrence in 14, liver in seven, distant lymph node in nine, and bone in three. Conclusions Laparoscopic surgery for clinical stage 0/I rectal carcinoma has feasible long‐term outcomes. (ClinicalTrials.gov No.NCT00635466.)
