Popis: Transanal local excision is only indicated in small rectal carcinomas with limited infiltration and high differentiation, and is followed by a 5-year survival rate around 90%. Endo-cavity irradiation has similar indications and results, but can only be performed by trained teams. The main risk of these local treatments is tumoral recurrence. A rigorous selection of patients is necessary and a rigorous postoperative survey.
