• The TME Trial After a Median Follow-up of 6 Years: Increased Local Control But No Survival Benefit in Irradiated Patients With Resectable Rectal Carcinoma (2007, background): “This is all the more the case as radiotherapy is responsible for significant long-term bowel dysfunction.(22) Now that both TME and radiotherapy have improved local control substantially, adjuvant chemotherapy may have a role in reducing systemic failure and thus improving survival.”
