Hassan R. Hashmi: ISR-CAA vs APR in Non-cCR Distal Rectal Cancer

Hassan R. Hashmi, General and Colorectal Surgeon at Las Vegas Surgical Associates, shared Syed A. Ahmad’s post on X:

“Insightful study from a high-volume center comparing ISR-CAA vs APR in non-cCR distal rectal cancer. Better local control with APR, but similar DFS raises meaningful questions on oncologic trade-offs vs sphincter preservation.”

Quoting Syed A. Ahmad, Director at University of Cincinnati Cancer Center, shared on X about a recent paper by Yael Feferman et al. published in Springer Nature Link:

“Outcomes of Distal Rectal Cancer Patients Who Did Not Qualify for Watch-and-Wait: Comparison of Intersphincteric Resection Versus Abdominoperineal Resection .”
