Abstract

Purpose. Local recurrence after curative surgery for colorectal cancer may be treated by potentially curative surgery, defined as resection of all macroscopic disease. We conducted this retrospective study to show the effectiveness of potentially curative resection for patients with locoregional recurrence (LRR).
