A study of intersphincteric resection rate following robotic-assisted total mesorectal excision versus laparoscopic-assisted total mesorectal excision for patients with middle and low rectal cancer: study protocol for a multicenter randomized clinical trial
Abstract Introduction Robotic-assisted complete mesorectal excision (RATME) is increasingly being used by colorectal surgeons. Most surgeons consider RATME a safe method, and believe it can facilitate total mesorectal excision (TME) in rectal cancer, and may potentially have advantages over intersph...
