Rectal cancer is associated with a higher rate of surgical complications. The ability to predict the risk complications before treatment would facilitate design personalized strategies optimally suited for each patient. We retrospectively studied 260 patients rectal who underwent radical surgery examine relations between and 5 types scores. Complications developed in 56 (21.5%). Nineteen had infectious complications, 16 intestinal obstruction, 12 other Twelve out 187 received low anterior resection anastomotic leakage.
