Abstract
The main role of morphological examination of the specimens obtained during surgical treatment of rectal cancer is to determine the individual factors of the prognosis of local and general relapse. A standardized method of pathoanatomic examination includes assessing the quality and severity of surgical intervention with evaluation of both distal and circular resection margins, determining surgical clearance, pathological stage of the tumor ((y)pTpN), its histological type and the degree of differentiation. The results of morphological examination have great prognostic importance and serve as a basis for planning postoperative treatment.
