ARTERIAL STUMP MEASUREMENT: QUALITY INDICATOR IN COLORECTAL SURGERY
Keywords:
ARTERIAL STUMP, COLORECTAL, SURGERY, QUALITY INDICATORAbstract
Measuring quality of surgery in colorectal resections for cancer has become an important subject of research since the principles of total mesorectal excision (TME) for rectal cancer and complete mesocolic excision (CME) for colon cancer have been brought forward. CME surgery proved to decrease local recurrence in colon cancer to 3.3%. Similarly, TME was shown to drastically improve surgical outcomes in rectal cancer.
