Abstract:
Concerted efforts are being made to improve the poor surgical outcomes in rectal carcinomas and this includes the use of total mesorectal excision by specially trained colorectal surgeons, in addition to the use of pre- or postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The role of each modality should be carefully evaluated, and benefits weighed against toxicity and added costs.
