Comparison of oncological outcomes of T1-3 N1 rectal cancer patients treated with neoadjuvant radiotherapy versus no radiotherapy: A retrospective cohort study
The omission of neoadjuvant SCRT in rT1-3N1M0 RC with no EMVI and no threatened resection margin caused no adverse effects on the survival of the patients. Based on this series, it appears that avoiding SCRT does not compromise the oncological outcome in these patients.
