[A Case of Robotic Abdominoperineal Resection for Rectal Cancer with Leriche Syndrome].

ABSTRACT

We report a case of robotic abdominoperineal resection for rectal cancer with Leriche syndrome. Case A 75-year-old male. Colonoscopy, which was performed due to persistent diarrhea, revealed type 2 lower rectal circumferential tumor. Pathological examination revealed adenocarcinoma. Computed tomography revealed no distant metastasis, and incidentally complete occlusion from the abdominal aorta to both common iliac arteries. He was diagnosed to rectal cancer(RbRaP, cT3N0M0, cStage Ⅱa)with Leriche syndrome. Therefore, robotic abdominoperineal resection(D3 dissection)was performed. There was no complication, and he was discharged 15 days after surgery. Postoperative pathological examination revealed pT3N1asM0, pStage Ⅲb.
