This article discusses the use of salvage endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) as an alternative treatment option for locally advanced rectal cancer patients who have undergone chemoradiation therapy (CRT). The study compared the long-term clinical outcomes of salvage ESD to surgical proctectomy after CRT. The results showed that salvage ESD was a viable option for carefully selected patients who demonstrated a clinical response to CRT. Although the salvage ESD group had a lower rate of complete resection (R0 resection), most of the lesions in this group were no longer adenocarcinomas after CRT. The two-year follow-up showed similar recurrence rates between the salvage ESD and proctectomy groups. [Extracted from the article] |
