BACKGROUND: @entity250 are frequent after surgery for @entity5 . @entity348 ( @entity348 ) improves local recurrence and survival rates, and does not hamper recognition and sparing of @entity530 . It is not known how laparoscopic rectal resection could change functional complication rates. MATERIALS AND METHODS: From a global series of 1,216 laparoscopic interventions for @entity14 , 35 cases of males less than 70  years old, undergoing rectal resection and @entity348 for a T1-3M0 medium and low @entity5 were selected. Urinary and sexual functions after the operations were retrospectively recorded by means of specific tools (International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) and IIEF questionnaires, respectively). RESULTS: None of the @entity1 necessitated permanent or intermittent catheterization. More than half the @entity1 had no complaints about urinary functions; about one third had @entity2183 ; 72% of the @entity1 had an IPSS less that 10, and no case of IPSS worse that 31 was recorded. Sexual desire was reduced and spontaneous erectile function was impaired in almost half the cases, while induced erections were possible in about 90% of cases; about 70% of @entity1 still had the possibility of penetration and a normal ejaculation and orgasm after the intervention. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS: The present series confirms previous data and contribute to the creation of a benchmark specifically related to the laparoscopic approach to which surgeons should face when informing the @entity1 before the operation. While severe @entity1973 is rare, @entity458 remains a serious concern after rectal resection with @entity348 .
