Abstract
BACKGROUND: Unplanned reoperation (URO) after surgery adversely affects the quality of life and prognosis of patients undergoing anterior resection for rectal cancer. This study aims to meet the urgent need for reliable predictive tools by developing an optimized machine learning model to estimate the risk of URO following anterior resection in rectal cancer patients.
