Therefore, it is essential for colorectal surgeons to have a comprehensive understanding of pelvic structure prior to surgery and anticipate potential surgical difficulties.<\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>AIM<\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>To evaluate predictive parameters for technical challenges encountered during laparoscopic radical sphincter-preserving surgery for rectal cancer.<\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>METHODS<\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>We retrospectively gathered data from 162 consecutive patients who underwent laparoscopic radical sphincter-preserving surgery for rectal cancer. Three-dimensional reconstruction of pelvic bone and soft tissue parameters was conducted using computed tomography (CT) scans. Operative difficulty was categorized as either high or low, and multivariate logistic regression analysis was employed to identify predictors of operative difficulty, ultimately creating a nomogram.<\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>RESULTS<\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>Out of 162 patients, 21 (13.0%) were classified in the high surgical difficulty group, while 141 (87.0%) were in the low surgical difficulty group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the surgical approach using laparoscopic intersphincteric dissection, intraoperative preventive ostomy, and the sacrococcygeal distance were independent risk factors for highly difficult laparoscopic radical sphincter-sparing surgery for rectal cancer (P  &lt; 0.05). Conversely, the anterior-posterior diameter of pelvic inlet\/sacrococcygeal distance was identified as a protective factor (P  &lt; 0.05). A nomogram was subsequently constructed, demonstrating good predictive accuracy (C-index = 0.834).<\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>CONCLUSION<\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>The surgical approach, intraoperative preventive ostomy, the sacrococcygeal distance, and the anterior-posterior diameter of pelvic inlet\/sacrococcygeal distance could help to predict the difficulty of laparoscopic radical sphincter-preserving surgery.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3748\/wjg.v30.i18.2418","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,11]],"date-time":"2024-05-11T07:22:03Z","timestamp":1715412123000},"page":"2418-2439","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Construction of a nomogram model to predict technical difficulty in performing laparoscopic sphincter-preserving radical resection for rectal cancer"],"prefix":"10.3748","volume":"30","author":[{"given":"Xiao-Cong","family":"Zhou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shi-Wei","family":"Guan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fei-Yue","family":"Ke","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gaurav","family":"Dhamija","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Qiang","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bang-Fei","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"2060","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00384-007-0433-5"},{"key":"B2","unstructured":"Bertani E, Chiappa A, Della Vigna P, Radice D, Papis D, Cossu L, Biffi R, Bianchi PP, Luca F, Andreoni B.
