Abstract
Conclusion: Local failure is a major problem in EHCC, suggesting the need for more intense radiation schedules and better radiosensitizing strategies. Because R1 resection appears to convey no benefit, it appears that surgery should be contemplated only when an R0 resection is likely. Borderline-resectable patients might be better served by neoadjuvant therapy.
