Cross-sectional schematic of the human pelvis illustrating surgical planes for total mesorectal excision (TME). The rectum (organ) and surrounding mesorectum (adipose tissue with lymphatics) are shown within the pelvic cavity, with dotted lines indicating the dissection envelope to protect the circumferential resection margin. In biological hierarchy, the rectum is part of the large intestine within the gastrointestinal system. Within colorectal surgery and surgical anatomy, this procedure enables oncologic removal of mesorectal fat containing potential lymph nodes. Species: Homo sapiens (human).
