Trial summary

Most patients with rectal cancer receive neoadjuvant therapy. This usually causes a decrease in tumor size. In approximately 20% of patients who receive neoadjuvant therapy, the tumor disappears completely (complete pathological response), showing as a scar on the rectal mucosa, not noticeable from the rectal serosa… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Description of the Safety and Functionality of a Rectoscope (P201630551) That Allows the Identification of the Distal Section Margin in Oncological Rectal Surgery

Most patients with rectal cancer receive neoadjuvant therapy. This usually causes a decrease in tumor size. In approximately 20% of patients who receive neoadjuvant therapy, the tumor disappears completely (complete pathological response), showing as a scar on the rectal mucosa, not noticeable from the rectal serosa, from outside the rectum, difficulting the identification of the tumor location by the surgeon.

Rectoscope (p201630551) allows the surgeon to view the illuminated rectum from the patient's abdomen, determining the appropriate point of section of the rectum.

Being tested
Rectoscope (P201630551)

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of adverse events related to use of the device.

    Safety. Clavien-Dindo classification will be used.

    Measured: at immediate postoperative period

  2. Evaluation of functionality

    Categorical variable. 3 options:

    1. the device has worked without problems
    2. the device has worked, but with problems
    3. the device could not carry out its function.

    Measured: at surgery
