Abstract
Subclassifying all T3 rectal tumours according to the depth of spread with a cut-off of 5±1 mm beyond the muscularis propria is prognostically relevant for overall survival, disease-free survival and cancer-specific survival irrespective of the nodal status; therefore, subclassifying T3 tumours should be a reporting requirement in histopathology reports.
