In Reply to Habr-Gama et al

To the Editor: We appreciate the comments made by Habr-Gama and colleagues regarding our recent publication in this journal (1, 2). First, we agree that the concept of organ preservation in rectal cancer is now less controversial than it used to be, owing to Dr. Habr-Gama's courage and leadership in changing the mindset of surgeons around the world regarding nonsurgical treatment options for rectal cancer.
