This book describes the various procedures, including surgery
through the abdominal wall, through a transanal access or by the
union of both, using an open, laparoscopic, or robotic approach.
Worldwide pioneers for each technique are invited as authors and
portray in step-by-step detail about each procedure. Of the 32
chapters, 23 are dedicated only for the surgical procedures. Each
chapter is enriched by numerous figures, which complement the
text, permitting the understanding of each surgical technique
from its beginning until the last step. Eight additional chapters
are dedicated to the clinical and anatomical aspects of rectal
cancer.

gastroenterologists, endoscopists, oncologists, radiotherapists
and radiologists involved in the treatment of rectal cancer
during their daily practice, to surgeons specialized in
colorectal surgery, to junior faculty to trainees, all interested
in new and innovative techniques.
