[Radiotherapy in the combined treatment of cancer of the rectum].
Analysis of the results of two methods used in the treatment of operable carcinoma of the rectum showed the advantages of the combined method over the purely surgical method: the survival of patients after combined treatment was practically twice that among patients subjected only to operation. No essential differences were found in the character and incidence of postoperative complications and postoperative lethality. All this allows the combined method of treatment to be recommended for wide use in clinical practice.
