Abstract

Significant advances have been made in the adjuvant management of resectable rectal cancer during the 1990s. In patients with clinically resectable disease, pelvic radiation therapy decreases local recurrence. The addition of systemic chemotherapy further decreases local recurrence and improves survival.
