Abstract
Intersphincteric resection (ISR) is being increasingly performed in metastatic rectal adenocarcinoma (with oligometastasis) patients. There has been a trend towards worse prognosis in this group. This study compares the oncological and surgical outcomes of patients with and without pre-operative oligometastasis who underwent ISR. The outcomes compared include prognostic factors like margin positivity, recurrence rates, stoma reversal rate, and surgical failure rate (defined as a combination of one or more of the aforestated factors). The demographic pattern, American Society of Anaesthesia grade (ASA), treatment received, clinical and histopathological T and N stage, grade, type of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) approach, neoadjuvant therapy, and pathological high-risk features are also studied. Patients who underwent minimally invasive ISR over 10 years at a high-volume tertiary cancer center were selected for the study. Factors used for the assessment of oncological outcomes were margin positivity (circumferential resection and distal margin), recurrence (both local and systemic), and stoma reversal rate. A descriptive and comparative analyses were performed. Four hundred and eight patients underwent minimally invasive ISR of which 25 (6.12%) patients were oligometastatic. While R0 resection was similar in both groups, higher overall recurrence (24% versus 18.5%) and low stoma reversal rate (36.8% versus 67.3%) were observed in the oligometastatic group with statistically significant differences. No local recurrence was seen in the oligometastatic group, and the difference compared to non-metastatic group was not statistically different. This study indicates that oligometastatic patients who underwent ISR experienced lower stoma reversal rates, maintaining similar local control but facing higher rates of systemic recurrence.

The Indian Journal of Surgical Oncology aims to encourage and promote clinical and research activities pertaining to Surgical Oncology. It also aims to bring in the concept of multidisciplinary team approach in management of various cancers.
The Journal would publish original article, point of technique, review article, case report, letter to editor, profiles of eminent teachers, surgeons and instititions - a short (up to 500 words) of the Cancer Institutions, departments, and oncologist, who founded new departments.
