On Tuesday, 5 July 2022, M. Verseveld will defend her PhD dissertation, entitled: ‘Organ Preserving Strategies in Rectal Cancer’.
Dissertation in short:
This thesis contributes to the development and improvement of organ-preserving strategies in the treatment of rectal cancer. The multidisciplinary approach and ‘tailor-made’ treatment strategies have rapidly evolved since the early nineties [1-4]. Preservation of the rectum in the treatment of rectal cancer may improve the quality of life (QOL) reported after radical TME surgery and is gradually becoming the treatment of first choice in a specific subgroup of patients [5].
