    Abstract Case summary: A 68-year-old woman presented with rectal bleeding, urgency, and tenesmus. A digital rectal examination confirmed a craggy mass infiltrating into the sphincter complex. Follow-up colonoscopy noted a low-rectal tumor (3 cm from the dentate), and histopathology confirmed a moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma. Subsequent staging with MRI confirmed a 5-cm circumferential low-rectal neoplasm with extramural vascular invasion and threatened circumferential resection margin. The neoplasm abutted the posterior vaginal wall and was invading the internal sphincter complex. Four enlarged mesorectal nodes (>7 mm) and several enlarged right pelvic sidewall nodes (largest at 17 mm) were also observed. There was no evidence of distant disease. The patient underwent long-course neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. Restaging showed a good treatment response with some regression and no involvement/encroachment of the vagina. All the mesorectal nodes had reduced in size (~4 mm), and all but one of the right pelvic sidewall nodes had also decreased in size. However, 1 pelvic sidewall node (obturator fossa) still remained at 10 mm. After the tumor board discussion, a decision to proceed to abdominoperineal resection with right sidewall clearance was made. Final histopathology confirmed a moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma with no mesorectal nodal involvement (19 nodes sampled), and 1 of 7 sidewall nodes had evidence of metastatic adenocarcinoma.

    Abstract Improving outcomes for uncommon tumours such as anal cancer can be challenging. Evolution of care tends to be incremental rather than transformative and identifying the specific factors facilitating improvement can be difficult. Outcome from specialist units may be better than that demonstrated in trials, posing challenges for development of future trials.

    Abstract Robotic colorectal surgery represents a major technological advancement in the treatment of patients with colorectal disease. Several recent randomized controlled trials comparing robotic colorectal surgery with laparoscopic surgery have demonstrated improved short-term patient outcomes in the robotic group. Whilst the primary focus of research in robotic surgery has been on patient outcomes, the robotic platform also provides unparalleled benefits for the surgeon, including improved ergonomics and surgeon comfort, with the potential to reduce occupational injuries and prolong career longevity. It is becoming clear that robotic surgical systems improve patient outcomes and may provide significant benefits to the surgical workforce.
