Abstract

Background: Pathologic examination in patients with cancer remains crucial for postoperative treatment and prognosis prediction. However, the method of pathologic examination in some patients with rectal cancer is not correct. Methods: The process of rectal cancer pathologic examination was analyzed in patients of rectal cancer who was undergone anterior resection operation. Results: We found the upper doughnut is proximal margin; however, the other under doughnut is not really distal margin. Conclusion: The evaluation of the distal margin should not only base on under doughnut but also combine with large specimens.
