Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
No Intervention: Lymphadenectomy without indocyanine green injection
Laparoscopic lymphadenectomy will be performed in a standard way.
Experimental: Lymphadenectomy with indocyanine green injection
Injection of indocyanine green to the submucosal layer around rectal cancer 1 day before surgery. Laparoscopic proctectomy with lymph nodes dissection will be performed under near-infrared imaging.
Indocyanine Green will be injected to the submucosal layer around the lesion one day before surgery.
