Abstract
Unselected patients with pT3N0 rectal cancer not treated with peri-operative radiation experience a high rate of LRR and reduced DSS in comparison to patients treated with bimodality and trimodality therapies. Advanced age is significantly associated with omission of therapy in patients with early stage rectal cancer.
