Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn to compare the safety and efficacy of virtual ileostomy versus diverting ileostomy in patients undergoing sphincter-saving surgery for rectal cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is the virtual ileostomy a safe and effective alternative to the ileostomy? * Is it scientifically reasonable to perform diverting ileostomy intraoperatively? Researchers will compare virtual ileostomy to diverting ileostomy to see if the virtual ileostomy works to reduce rates of stoma. Participants will: * Performing diverting ileostomy or virtual ileostomy undergoing sphincter-saving surgery for rectal cancer * Continuous follow-up of their complications after the first surgery
