Normally adenocarcinoma is found in rectum, though there could be variations.  The neuroendocrine tumour has poor prognosis as compared to adenocarcinoma when compared in same stage group. Let your medical oncologist decide plan of chemotherapy. Usually cisplatin with etoposide is used but there are many other regimens as well
