People with rectal cancers that have not spread to distant sites are usually treated with surgery. Treatment with radiation and chemotherapy (chemo) may also be given before or after surgery.
Chemoradiation is followed by surgery to remove the rectal cancer and nearby lymph nodes, usually by low anterior resection (LAR), proctectomy with colo-anal anastomosis, or abdominoperineal resection (APR), depending on where the cancer is in the rectum.
If the polyp is removed completely during colonoscopy, with no cancer in the edges, no other treatment may be needed.
