Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate feasibility of computer navigation-assisted surgery in particularly difficult cases of locally advanced (LARC) and recurrent (LRRC) rectal cancer where the standard surgical strategy is expected to result in incomplete tumour removal. The investigators hypothesize that computer navigation-assisted surgery can facilitate improved anatomic orientation in the pelvis enabling tumour removal with free margins in these cases.

DEVICE

Computer-assisted navigation surgery

Computer navigation-assisted surgery has two main elements; the pre-procedural planning to create accurate 3D images of the pelvis allowing the surgical team to achieve an accurate perception of the operative field, and intraoperative navigation where these images are used for anatomical guidance to enhance surgical precision. Accordingly, computer software is used in this study to outline the tumour and other pelvic organs on pre-operative images which are subsequently used for intraoperative navigation.
