* TNM classification at the initial diagnosis; ** resectability at the initial surgery; *** timing of aggressive resection accompanied with arterial reconstruction using SAG for PPT; **** neoadjuvant chemotherapy before aggressive resection accompanied with arterial reconstruction using SAG. LN – lymph node; PPT – paraaortic and/or pelvic tumor; SAG – synthetic arterial graft; TNM – tumor-node-metastasis. |
