Almost 44,000 people are diagnosed with bowel cancer every year in the UK, and surgery is the primary treatment option.
Undergoing re**al cancer surgery can leave people with symptoms of low anterior resection syndrome (LARS), which is estimated to affect up to 40% of those who have had surgery.
This condition can affect the quality of life for many, impacting various aspects such as mental wellbeing, social activities and relationships.
