[Radiotherapy of local recurrences of surgically treated rectal and rectosigmoidal cancer]. 1984

G Gardani, and E Ceglia, and A Lattuada, and S Serantoni, and R Zucali

Local surgical failures of rectal and rectosigmoidal cancer are often observed and represent a heavy clinical problem from the viewpoint of quality of life. After having referred bad results of radiotherapy in a group of 55 patients locally relapsed after radical surgery, the authors analyse causes of therapeutic failure, underlining that ineffectiveness of radiation treatment comes mainly from late and, frequently, not complete diagnosis. Computed tomography must be currently considered the best way for monitoring these patients in order to get an earlier detection and the most correct radiation treatment plan.
