| Core Tip |
This study compared long-term oncological outcomes between the watch-and-wait strategy and radical surgery in 100 rectal cancer patients with clinical complete response after neoadjuvant therapy. Results showed comparable 3-year disease-free survival, overall survival, and recurrence rates, while watch-and-wait conferred better quality of life, supporting watch-and-wait as a safe organ-preserving option. |
