pubmed:abstractText |
Preoperative chemoradiation may downstage locally advanced rectal cancer and, in some cases, with no residual tumor. The management of complete response is controversial and recent data suggest that radical surgery may be avoided in selected cases. Transanal excision of the scar may determine the rectal wall response to chemoradiation. This study was designed to assess whether the absence of tumor in the bowel wall corresponds to the absence of tumor in the mesorectum, known as true complete response.
