Low Anterior Resection is a surgical procedure used to remove the diseased portion of the rectum while preserving the anal sphincter when medically appropriate. It is commonly performed for selected cases of rectal cancer and certain other rectal conditions. After removing the affected section, the surgeon reconnects the remaining colon to the rectum or anal canal to maintain the natural route of bowel movement. In some cases, a temporary diverting ileostomy may be created to protect the surgical connection during healing.
