Abstract
Summary Abdominoperineal resection was performed on 300 patients during the period from January 1950, to December 1954. All 300 cases were reviewed from the standpoint of immediate postoperative complications associated with this procedure. In 18 cases the follow up period was too short to determine whether late complications occurred. Some type of complication developed in 58.3 per cent of the group. The highest incidence of complications was related to the urinary tract (27 per cent). The most serious were cardiovascular and pulmonary complications.Keywords
