Comparative perioperative outcomes of articulated versus conventional straight devices in laparoscopic low anterior resection: a propensity score–matched analysis

Purpose Laparoscopic low anterior resection for rectal cancer is technically challenging due to the precision required for mesorectal excision. Articulated instruments were developed to improve precision and oncological safety over conventional instruments. This study compares their perioperative ou...
