TL;DR: The lower unadjusted overall survival in the T EM-only group indicates that TEM-only may be a valid alternative in older and frail patients, especially when high morbidity of completion surgery is taken into consideration, Nevertheless, completion surgery should always be advised when curation is intended.
Journal ArticleDOI
