ArtiSential® for Rectal Cancer Surgery
An observational study of Rectal Cancer, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.
Trial summary
This study aimed to assess efficacy of ArtiSential® in reducing laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery duration. We retrospectively reviewed the data of patients who underwent laparoscopic low or ultralow anterior resection for primary mid-to-low rectal cancer, performed by a single surgeon in 2012-2022.

About this study
Official title: Safety and Efficacy of Flexible Articulated Instrument (ArtiSential®) in Laparoscopic Surgery for Rectal Cancer
This study aimed to assess efficacy of ArtiSential® in reducing laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery duration. We retrospectively reviewed the data of patients who underwent laparoscopic low or ultralow anterior resection for primary mid-to-low rectal cancer, performed by a single surgeon in 2012-2022. Patients were divided into groups, use group vs. non-use group, based on the use or non-use of the ArtiSential®. The total mesorectal excision quality and resection margin status did not differ between the groups. ArtiSential® reduced operative time without impairing surgical quality or oncologic outcomes.
