“…Urso et al [61] evaluated the QOL and continence of 22 patients who received chemotherapy and pelvic radiotherapy (50.4 Gy/28 Fraction; 5-FU continuous infusion and weekly oxaliplatin) followed by surgery and 5-FU-based postoperative chemotherapy. Data were collected using the fecal incontinence scoring system (FIS) and the EORTC QLQ-CR38 questionnaires before and after pelvic radiotherapy and at least 8 months after surgery.…”

“…However, this was predominantly due to an elevated number of perineal wound complications after abdomino-perineal excision while preoperative radiation had no influence on the anastomotic leak rate after anterior resection [16]. Apart from these two multicenter RCTs, most studies dealing with the influence of preoperative therapy on anastomotic leak rate after rectal cancer surgery have been single-center trials including relatively few patients (n=39 through 425) [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28]. Preoperative RT or CRT was not related to anastomotic leak rate in some of these trials while it was an independent risk factor for anastomotic leakage in others.…”

“…Auch wenn die neoadjuvante Strahlentherapie nicht zu einer Erhöhung der unmittelbaren perioperativen Morbidität führt, ist sie nicht ohne Folgen auf die langfristigen funktionellen Ergebnisse, insbesondere im Bezug auf Stuhl-und Sexualfunktion [6,10,11]. Der Grund für die Überthera-pie liegt bei einem Teil der betroffenen Patienten an der mangelnden Gesamtgenauigkeit der eingesetzten Stagingverfahren, an der mangelnden Qualität bei deren Durchführung oder deren mangelnder Verfügbarkeit [3,5].…”
