The natural history of surgically treated adenocarcinoma of the cecum has not been well defined. This report is a retrospective study of 106 patients followed for a median time of 25 months after hemicolectomy. The overall median survival rate was 73 months and the median disease-free survival rate was 37 months; 22 of 106 patients failed locally (21%). In addition, 7 of these 22 patients had distal failure. Thus, there appears to exist a group of patients likely to benefit from adjuvant radiotherapy. Whether total abdominal irradiation or locoregional radiotherapy is the method of choice needs to be further defined.
