Abstract
The inferior clinical results observed after LAR compared with the results after sigmoid colectomy are thus in part because of higher neorectal pressure acting on a weakened sphincter mechanism. These observations lend support to the idea that neorectal capacity should be increased in patients who undergo low anterior resection.
