Predictive factors of surgery in metastatic colorectal cancer: a retrospective cohort study
CONCLUSION: The degree of colorectal tumor stenosis measured by endoscopy was a risk factor for emergency surgery in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer during neoadjuvant chemotherapy. In this group of patients presenting low survival outcomes, further studies are needed to define the place of preventive surgery, avoiding emergency surgery and morbidity in such fragile patients.PMID:37605980 | DOI:10.1080/00015458.2023.2231211 (Source: Acta Chirurgica Belgica)
