Abstract

Lateral pelvic lymph node (LPLN) involvement occurs in 10%–25% of rectal cancer cases. Total mesorectal excision (TME) with routine LPLN dissection (LPLND) is predominantly applied in Japan whereas TME with neoadjuvant treatment are used in the West. LPLND is a morbid procedure and minimally invasive techniques may help reduce its morbidity. Selective lateral pelvic node dissection with TME following neoadjuvant treatment achieves acceptable disease-free and overall survival.
