The main objective of this study is to determine the prognostic value of complete tumor regression after pre-operative chemoradiotherapy in RC. Our study confirms that a complete pathological response on T (Dworak 4) after pre-operative treatment is an important prognostic factor. The persistance of microscopic residual disease (Dworak 3) is associated with a favourable local control.

Abstract
The main objective of this study is to determine the prognostic value of complete tumor regression after pre-operative chemoradiotherapy in RC. Our study confirms that a complete pathological response on T (Dworak 4) after pre-operative treatment is an important prognostic factor. The persistance of microscopic residual disease (Dworak 3) is associated with a favourable local control.
