Age significantly impacts the survival prognosis of rectal cancer patients after local excision (LE) or radical excision (RE). Younger patients (<50 and 50-66 years) showed significantly better 5-year overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) after LE compared to older patients (>66 years). However, there was no significant difference in survival outcomes between LE and RE across all age groups.
