To determine whether neural invasion or other clinico-pathological factors are prognostic, we performed a retrospective study on 339 rectal carcinomas. The overall 5-year survival was 62%. In the multivariate analysis, age over 60 years, a distance from the anal verge of less than 6 cm, the number of positive lymph nodes, neural invasion and tumour penetration were found to be prognostic. A scoring system identified five prognostic groups of patients. Neural invasion is an independent prognostic factor in our scoring system and it is suggested that this parameter should be taken into consideration for postsurgical treatment.
