A member asked:
Could there be a cure for adenocarcinoma of the rectum?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sure: Early stage can be often cured with surgery plus or minus chemo and radiation. The earlier the stage, the best odds you have, so early detection is important. A handful of patients with stage IV will do well long term but as a rule it is considered incurable.
