Sphincter-sparing surgery is an advanced surgical approach for rectal cancer that removes the tumor while preserving the anal sphincter, allowing patients to maintain normal bowel function. This technique is beneficial for low-lying rectal cancers, avoiding the need for a permanent colostomy.
Dr. Srivatsan Gurumurthy specializes in robotic-assisted and laparoscopic sphincter-sparing procedures, ensuring precision, faster recovery, and better functional outcomes for rectal cancer patients.
