"Impact of Limberg Flap Reconstruction Following Abdominoperineal Resection: A Randomized Controlled Trial.".

Background: Perineal wound complications after abdominoperineal resection (APR) for low rectal cancer remain a significant challenge. Effective reconstruction methods are critical to reducing morbidity and improving outcomes.

Objective: To compare the effectiveness of primary closure versus Limberg flap reconstruction in managing perineal defects post-abdominoperineal resection.
