Better quality of life and reduced fecal incontinence in rectal cancer patients with the watch-and-wait follow-up strategy.
Rev Gastroenterol Mex (Engl Ed)
October 2021
Introduction: The watch-and-wait (WW) strategy is an alternative to anterior resection in patients with rectal cancer (RC) that have had a complete clinical response to neoadjuvant treatment. Few reports describe the quality of life and functional anorectal disorders (FADs) in that population.
Aim: To analyze and compare the FADs and quality of life in patients with locally advanced adenocarcinoma of the rectum treated with neoadjuvant therapy, divided into two different strategy groups: group 1 (G1), WW; and group 2 (G2), anterior resection.
