The hypothesis is that intraoperative radiotherapy for locally advanced or recurrent rectal cancer improve outcomes without causing significant side effects.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Primary Outcome measures are 3-year locoregional control, progression-free and overall survival rates.

Secondary outcome measures are toxicities scores up to 3 months after surgery (acute) and greater than 3 months after surgery (late). Data collected at 3-6 month intervals for 30 months
