520 _aIn Spain 22,000 new cases of colorectal cancer are diagnosed each year, with 13,075 deaths resulting from this disease. Around 70% of colorectal cancers are localised in the colon and 30% in the rectum. A group of Spanish experts established recommendations on what would be the best strategy in the treatment of locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). Adequate assessment of local tumour extension, including high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging and endorectal ultrasound, is essential for successful treatment. The three cornerstones in the treatment of LARC are surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Most patients will need a total mesorectal excision (TME). Preoperative chemo-radiotherapy (CRT) is preferred for the majority of patients with T3/T4 disease and/or regional node involvement, and adjuvant chemotherapy is recommended after a patient-sharing decision. Capecitabine, after showing a trend in improved downstaging in neoadjuvant stratum and the convenience of its oral administration, represents an alternative to 5-FU as perioperative treatment of LARC.
