[A Case of Anastomotic Recurrence of Rectal Cancer Treated by Laparoscopic Total Pelvic Exenteration after Neoadjuvant Chemoradiation].

Patient is 69-year-old man, who underwent a high anterior resection with laparoscopic support for rectal cancer. The patient was diagnosed with anastomotic recurrent rectal cancer after 14 months after surgery. The pelvic MRI scan showed invasion of the prostate and seminal vesicles, so NACRT was performed. Tumors were found to have decreased in size, although there was still some residual invasion of the prostate and seminal vesicle. Laparoscopic total pelvic exenteration (Lap-TPE), and combined excision of the anal elevator muscle and bladder were performed. Preoperative diagnosis was ycT4b, N0, M0, ycStage Ⅱ, and pathological diagnosis was pT4b (prostate and seminal vesicles), INF b, Ly2, v2, Pn1b, pPM0, pDM0, pRM0, and pN0. Laparoscopic surgery allowed to operate safely, with minimal blood loss and a good field of vision. After postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, lung and liver metastasis appeared after 6 months after surgery, but there was no local recurrence. The patient is treated with chemotherapy, and the metastases are under control. The patient is survive 17 months after Lap-TPE.
