AB  - At  the  beginning  of  the  21st  century,  rectal  cancer  continues  to  be  a  significant  medical  and  social  problem.  Currently,  there  are  approximately  149,000  cases  of  colorectal  cancer  diagnosed  in  the  United  States  each  year.  Adenocarcinoma  of  the  rectum  accounts  for  nearly  30%  of  these  cancers.  This  translates  into  41,000  new  diagnoses  of  rectal  cancer  each  year  and  greater  than  10,000  deaths  attributable  to  this  disease  within  the  same  time  period.1
