Herein, risk factors, screening, diagnostic elements (clinical and histological), staging, and treatment (surgery as the cornerstone) are presented in early disease, locally advanced, oligometastatic scenarios, and after conversion therapy. Discussion and multidisciplinary management in decision - making for adjuvant treatment are emphasized.
