Complex therapy of advanced colorectal carcinoma.
The present paper reports on a complex therapy of 18 patients with primary unresectable advanced carcinoma of the rectum and rectosigmoid. The results of surgery following complete chemoradiotherapy are evaluated. Radical surgery was successful in 15/18 patients. The authors describe a high incidence of postoperative complications and point out a high erudition of an oncosurgeon necessary for such intervention as well as for the indication of a patient to this extensive operation. (Tab. 2, Ref. 18.)
