Factors Affecting the Results of Treatment of Patients With Colorectal Cancer

The study attempts to quantify the relative risks for mortality, anastomotic leakage and other early and late postoperative complications, recurrence rate, cancer-specific survival, recurrence-free survival after colorectal surgery for patients with colorectal cancer depending on the localization of the tumor.

Treatment and study plan

Right Hemicolectomy

Procedure

Resection of the caecum and ascending colon is appropriate for patients with tumors located anywhere from caecum to the transverse colon

Left hemicolectomy

Procedure

Resection of the sigmoid colon is appropriate for patients with tumors located anywhere from the distal transverse colon to the rectosigmoid junction.

Sigmoid colon resection

Procedure

Resection of the sigmoid colon is appropriate for patients with tumors located in the sigmoid colon

Anterior resection of the rectum

Procedure

AR is appropriate for tumors located in rectosigmoid junction and in the proximal rectum

Low anterior resection of the rectum

Procedure

LAR is appropriate for tumors located in the middle and low rectum

Abdominoperineal resection

Procedure

APR is appropriate for distal rectal cancers that invade the external sphincter or the levator muscles

Total Colectomy

Procedure

Total abdominal colectomy may be indicated for patients with primary multiple cancer tumors

Primary outcomes

  1. Anastomotic leakage rate

    Time frame: 3 months after surgery

    Anastomotic leakage rate after colorectal resection.

    AL is confirmed by one or more of the following conditions:

    • fecal discharge from the pelvic drainage at any time after surgery
    • rectovaginal fistula defined as fecal or mucus discharge from the vagina
    • pelvic sepsis as defined by the collection of pus/ fecal material in the pelvis documented by CT scan
    • contrast present outside of the anastomosis as seen by X-Ray contrast enema proctography or CT contrast enema proctography
  2. Mortality rate

    Time frame: 3 years after surgery

    the overall mortality after colorectal cancer surgery

Secondary outcomes

  1. 30-day complication rate

    Time frame: 30 days after surgery

    The number of patients with complications after colorectal resection. All complications will be assessed according to the Clavien-Dindo classification. It consists of 7 grades (I, II, IIIa, IIIb, IVa, IVb and V).

    Grade I - Any deviation from the normal postoperative course without the need for treatment.

    Grade II - Requiring pharmacological treatment with drugs other than such allowed for grade I complications.

    Grade III - Requiring surgical, endoscopic or radiological intervention

    • IIIa - Intervention not under general anesthesia
    • IIIb - Intervention under general anesthesia Grade IV - Life-threatening complication requiring IC/ICU-management
    • IVa - single organ dysfunction (including dialysis)
    • IVb - multiorgandysfunction Grade V - Death of a patient
  2. Recurrence rate

    Time frame: 3 years after surgery

    All cases of colorectal cancer recurrence

  3. Cancer-specific survival

    Time frame: 3 years after surgery

    The number of patients survived within 3 years after the diagnosis

  4. Recurrence-free survival

    Time frame: 3 years after surgery

    The number of patients without cancer recurrence within 3 years after surgery
