Local recurrence (LR) is a major problem following curative resection of rectal cancer. Intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT) is considered an ideal boost technique for increasing the dose of radiation therapy within a restricted area without introducing a significant toxicity. The aim of this study is to present the results of a multimodality treatment containing external beam irradiation, chemotherapy, surgical resection, and IORT delivered by a movable linear accelerator (NOVAC7, Hitesys SpA, Italia), employed in a "traditional" operating room.
