Building on last week's podcast, Katherine Smith, Specialty Registrar in East Midlands School of Surgery, takes you through a laparoscopic anterior resection for a rectosigmoid cancer. There is a step by step commentary and operative footage of this commonly performed operation, with explanation of the anatomy and each step of the operation. Viewing this in conjunction with the "anterior resection explained" podcast will help you to fully understand anterior resection, whether you are a medical student, core trainee (junior resident), or higher surgical trainee.
