Target Recruitment
500
Inclusion Criteria
  • Clinical diagnosis of low rectal cancer; Low rectal cancer was defined by the presence of the inferior pole of the tumor below the peritoneal reflection (in 11 cm from the anal margin)
  • Primary tumor has undergone histologically comfirmed rectal adenocarcinoma
  • Together with clinical or radiological evidence of Stage II (T3-4, N0, M0) or Stage III (T1-4, N1-2, M0) disease (according to the 2016 revision of the International Union Against Cancer primary tumor, regional nodes, metastasis (TNM) staging system)
  • Performance status (ECOG) 0~1
  • Adequate hematological function: Neutrophils≥1.5 x109/l and platelet count≥100 x109/l; hemoglobin (Hb) ≥9g/dl (within 1 week prior to randomization)
  • Adequate hepatic and renal function: Serum bilirubin≤1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN), alkaline phosphatase ≤5x ULN, and serum transaminase (either primary tumor, regional nodes, metastasis (AST) or ALT) ≤ 5 x ULN(within 1 week prior to randomization);
  • Written informed consent for participation in the trial.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Anastomotic leak rate30 days post operatively

Anastomotic leak is a common and serious complication after low anterior, resection, and often leads to re-operation.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Reoperation rate after anastomotic leak30 days post operatively

Anastomotic leak is a common and serious complication after low anterior, resection, and often leads to excrement peritonitis, and re-operation as colostomy
