Summary. In cases of rectal cancer, which can be removed only by combined excision, the synchronous procedure is the method of choice. The essential benefits of this operation are technical facilitation, mutual help in dissection, exact bleeding control in any situation and the removal of the tumour before closing the pelvic floor. There is no increased risk of shock as a result of two operations at the same time. Two pints of blood are sufficient in normal cases.In the 1st Surgical University-Clinic in Vienna 210 synchronous combined excisions of the rectum were performed by 15 surgeons during the years 1966 to 1970. The resectability rate was 88°/0 of all diagnosed cases and the operative letality was 60/0. Ergebnisse bei einzeitigen Colonresektionen ohne entlastende DarmfistelH. B~C~:ER* und E.
