Optimization of therapeutic strategies for selective lateral lymph node dissection after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in patients with rectal cancer with clinical suspected lateral lymph node metastasis

Optimization of therapeutic strategies for selective lateral lymph node dissection after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in patients with rectal cancer with clinical suspected lateral lymph node metastasis

BackgroundSelective lateral lymph node (LLN) dissection with total mesorectal excision after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) is pointed out to reduce lateral compartment recurrence and to improve survival in patients with rectal cancer with LLN metastases. This study aimed to explore the safety...
