Abstract

Male sexual and urinary dysfunctions after ARR are important complications. Total mesorectal excision (TMX) with autonomic nerve-sparing technique has been introduced in order to avoid such complications, preserving oncologic radicality. The aim of this study was to assess safeness of this technique in terms of sexual, urinary and voiding function.
