AbstractStimulated by a report in 1974, we have reviewed all abdominoperineal resections in a Univeristy-affiliated community hospital. From 1964--1973, 67 such procedures were performed. There were 65 adenocarcinomas, one squamous cell cancer, and one carcinoid tumor. Dukes' classification was A-4, B-22, C-39, D-4. Postoperative complications occurred in 55.1% of patients. Late complications occurred in 22% of patients. Five-year follow-up was possible in 34 patients with an overall survival of 50%.
