TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported long-term results with a median follow-up of 134 months, where they found a difference of 10% in 5-year overall survival as the primary end point.
Abstract: Purpose Preoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT) has been established as standard treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer after first results of the CAO/ARO/AIO-94 [Working Group of Surgical Oncology/Working Group of Radiation Oncology/Working Group of Medical Oncology of the Germany Cancer Society] trial, published in 2004, showed an improved local control rate. However, after a median follow-up of 46 months, no survival benefit could be shown. Here, we report long-term results with a median follow-up of 134 months. Patients and Methods A total of 823 patients with stage II to III rectal cancer were randomly assigned to preoperative CRT with fluorouracil (FU), total mesorectal excision surgery, and adjuvant FU chemotherapy, or the same schedule of CRT used postoperatively. The study was designed to have 80% power to detect a difference of 10% in 5-year overall survival as the primary end point. Secondary end points included the cumulative incidence of local and distant relapses and disease-free survival...

TL;DR: A more detailed surgical technique was described 33 years later by Kocher, who explained lymph node dissection from the submandibular triangle in the context of access to the operative treatment of carcinomas of the tongue.
Abstract: This is a revised and updated guide to the principles of surgery, highlighting advances and techniques in transplantation, surgical oncology and trauma. It also examines minimally invasive techniques and the principles underlying pathophysiology and surgical intervention.
