More patients with local recurrence underwent repeat surgery with curative intent. No difference existed, however, in overall survival (68% v 70%) or cancer related survival. More recently, Schoemaker and his colleagues evaluated the addition of annual chest radiography, colonoscopy, and computed tomography of the liver to a standard follow up based on clinical examination, faecal occult blood testing, liver function tests, and measurement of the carcinoembyronic antigen, with further investigations as clinically indicated.
