Comparison of prognosis for T4b rectal cancer with different pelvic compartment involvement treated using neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and implications for refinement of the current T staging system: A retrospective cohort study
T4b rectal cancers with involvement limited to the inferior pelvic compartment had superior prognosis compared to those involving other pelvic compartments. These differences should be investigated further and taken into consideration in refinement of the current T staging system.
