Dis Colon Rectum 48:1736-41. 2005..Reports of the relationship between length of delay before diagnosis of rectal cancer and stage of the disease have been mixed. The present study documented the magnitude and medical ramifications of delay in diagnosing rectal cancer...
Tumor hypoxia detected by positron emission tomography with 60Cu-ATSM as a predictor of response and survival in patients undergoing Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for rectal carcinoma: a pilot studyDavid W Dietz

Department of Colorectal Surgery, Digestive Disease Institute, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, Ohio, USA
Dis Colon Rectum 54:939-46. 2011..There is debate whether performing the perineal part of the abdominoperineal resection in a prone position in comparison with a lithotomy position optimizes circumferential resection margins and, subsequently, cancer outcomes... - Pathologic complete response after neoadjuvant treatment for rectal cancer decreases distant recurrence and could eradicate local recurrenceLuiz Felipe de Campos-Lobato
Department of Colorectal Surgery, Digestive Disease Institute, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH, USA
Ann Surg Oncol 18:1590-8. 2011..The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical implications of pathologic complete response (pCR) (i.e., T0N0M0) after neoadjuvant chemoradiation and radical surgery in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer... - T4N0 colon cancer has oncologic outcomes comparable to stage III in a specialized centerMatteo Rottoli
Department of Colorectal Surgery, Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Cleveland, OH, USA
Ann Surg Oncol 19:2500-5. 2012..Our hypothesis was that optimized surgical resection and lymph node staging in a specialized center could eliminate discrepancies in oncologic outcomes within stage II colon carcinomas... - Consequences of anastomotic leak after restorative proctectomy for cancer: effect on long-term function and quality of lifeJean H Ashburn
Department of Colorectal Surgery, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, Ohio 44195, USA

Department of Radiation Oncology, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH 44195, USA
Radiat Oncol 7:110. 2012..Patients with locally advanced or recurrent rectal cancer often require multimodality treatment. Intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT) is a focal approach which aims to improve local control... - Downstaging after chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced rectal cancer: is there more (tumor) than meets the eye?Emilio D Mignanelli
Department of Colon and Rectal Surgery, Digestive Disease Institute, Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Cleveland, OH 44195, USA

Dis Colon Rectum 48:1581-7. 2005..Various imaging modalities are useful for planning resection but cannot establish a definitive diagnosis.

Dis Colon Rectum 47:1655-60; discussion 1660-1. 2004..A formal mapping procedure does not preclude recurrence. Initial screening and follow-up regimens are not uniform because of the wide range of treatment options available...
