Lateral Pelvic Lymph Node Dissection for low locally advanced rectal cancer: a review
Lateral pelvic lymph node dissection for advanced low rectal cancer has generated much discussion in the literature in last few years. Whilst it is still being debated as to whether it constitutes a locoregional disease amenable to surgery, or whether it is a distant metastases requiring neoadjuvant...

Lateral pelvic lymph node dissection for advanced low rectal cancer has generated much discussion in the literature in last few years. Whilst it is still being debated as to whether it constitutes a locoregional disease amenable to surgery, or whether it is a distant metastases requiring neoadjuvant therapy, what is clear is that patients with enlarged lateral pelvic lymph nodes have higher rate of recurrence. In this review, we have analysed the current evidence and recommendations for lateral pelvic lymph node dissection.
