ABSTRACT
Carbon ion radiotherapy (CIRT) has received attention for the treatment of locally recurrent rectal cancer. When the surrounding primary organs are close to the irradiation site, a spacer is required to ensure safe irradiation. This work describes a novel technique using a bioabsorbable polyglycolic acid spacer placed laparoscopically and presents a technical report with five case studies. The short-term surgical outcomes were as follows mean operating time 235 min with blood loss of 38 mL. CIRT was planned, and the patients underwent irradiation within 2 months of surgery. No pelvic infections occurred, and all procedures were performed safely. Herein, were present a technical report with reference to a video of the surgical procedure.
