Abstract

We report on a case of late pelvic recurrence of a rectal carcinoma 15 years after primary abdominoperineal resection and radiotherapy (primary stage T2 N0 M0; Dukes B). The origin of the recurrent tumour was undoubtfully proved by histological examination of the palliatively resected recurrent carcinoma.
