Restorative total mesorectal excision (TME) for rectal cancer after high‐dose pelvic radiotherapy for prostate cancer has been reported to provide an unacceptable rate of pelvic sepsis. In a previous publication we proposed that delayed coloanal anastomosis (DCAA) should be performed in this situation. The present study aimed to assess the feasibility and outcomes of this strategy.

延迟结肠吻合术：前列腺癌高剂量盆腔放疗后直肠癌修复性手术的替代选择。

据报道，对前列腺癌进行高剂量盆腔放疗后，对直肠癌进行修复性全直肠系膜切除术 (TME) 的盆腔脓毒症发生率不可接受。在之前的一篇文章中，我们建议在这种情况下应该进行延迟结肠肛管吻合术 (DCAA)。本研究旨在评估该策略的可行性和结果。
