Summary

Various adrenergic blockers are used for acute voiding difficulty after proctectomy. Recently, a selective alpha5-adrenergic blocker, Tamsulosin has been reported to have benefit in reducing urinary symptom score and in reducing the rate of intermittent self-catheterization for patients with rectal cancer after radical proctectomy.

This study is to evaluate the efficacy of pharmacologic prevention to ameliorate the incidence of postoperative urinary dysfunction.
