About this study

Official title: Randomized Controlled Trial: Clinical Value of Preserving Left Colic Artery in Laparoscopic Radical Rectectomy

Colorectal cancer is one of the most common tumors in Asia. According to the recent research, surgical procedure could provide more treatment benefit in rectal cancer. Therefore, it was consider that important to standardized and improved the surgical procedure for rectal cancer. With the development of anatomical technique, minimally surgery with laparoscopy had become the trend for surgical treatment. There were several studies has been done to evaluate the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic surgery. In order to achieve better surgical outcome and reduce operative complications, the investigators design stratified randomization, double blinded, muti - center clinical trail to investigate the value of left colic artery in laparoscopic radical rectectomy.

Being tested

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • LCA-nPProcedure or surgery

    The group underwent lapaoroscopic radical rectectomy without preserving left colic artery.

  • LCA-PProcedure or surgery

    The group underwent lapaoroscopic radical rectectomy with preserving left colic artery.

Study groups in NCT03349788
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
LCA-nPExperimentalThe group underwent laparoscopic radical rectectomy without preserving left colic artery. In IMA group, the dissecting based on TME is performed without preserving left colic artery. Surgeon should dissect the lymph nodes and ligated the vessel in the root of inferior mesenteric artery.
Receives: Procedure: LCA-nP
LCA-PActive comparatorThe group underwent laparoscopic radical rectectomy with preserving left colic artery. In LCA group, the dissecting based on TME is performed with preserving left colic artery. The relationship of inferior mesenteric artery, inferior mesenteric vein and LCA should be identified and ligated separately without LCA.
Receives: Procedure: LCA-P
