BJS (British Journal of Surgery), Volume 107, Issue 13, Page 1791-1800, December 2020., 2020 Remnant cancer missed by endoscopic biopsies was located in the mucosa in two‐thirds of patients with residual disease after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT). One‐third of patients had residual disease in the submucosa underneath a tumour‐free mucosa. The yield of biopsies in active surveillance after nCRT could be improved by sampling larger areas
