Abstract

A 66-year-old man presenting with cStage Ⅲc rectal cancer underwent laparoscopic low anterior resection(D3 lymph node dissection and R0 resection)following neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy(capecitabine, 45 Gy/25 Fr)and received adjuvant chemotherapy(CAPOX). A year after surgery, abdominal contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed recurrence near the rectal anastomosis with prostate invasion. The patient underwent robot-assisted abdominoperineal resection alongside en bloc prostatectomy and vesico-urethral anastomosis after 12 courses of neoadjuvant chemotherapy(FOLFIRI and panitumumab). He exhibited a good postoperative course and was discharged on the 12th postoperative day. After 7 months of surgery, no recurrence was observe; and urinary incontinence seen immediately after surgery gradually improved.
