The destruction of rectum carcinoma by electrocoagulation can be used for the treatment of patients of older age groups with high operative risk having exophite tumors of the inferior ampular part not more than 3 cm in size. When observing the conditions concerned and careful dispensary examination, the efficiency of immediate and long-term results of this operation are not inferior to generally used routine methods of treatment. Electrocoagulation of rectum carcinoma must be fulfilled but at oncological and specially equipped oncoproctological units.
