Long-term outcomes of D2 vs. D3 lymph node dissection for cT2N0M0 colorectal cancer: a multi ‑institutional retrospective analysis

ConclusionThe long-term outcomes did not differ between the D2 and D3 groups and the extent of LND was not associated with prognosis for cT2N0M0 CRC. Therefore, D2 LND may be sufficient for cT2N0N0 CRC treatment.
