    Total mesorectal excision (TME) is the standard treatment for resectable rectal cancer, improving oncological outcomes.

  • 2

    Prolonged postoperative ileus (PPOI) is a significant complication after colorectal surgery, affecting recovery and ERAS protocols.

  • 3

    The study analyzed 1090 patients with rectal cancer who underwent laparoscopic TME, focusing on risk factors for PPOI.

  • 4

    PPOI was diagnosed based on specific criteria, including nausea, inability to tolerate diet, and abdominal distension.

  • 5

    Statistical analysis utilized propensity score matching to address bias and identify significant risk factors for PPOI.
