Abstract
A review of 532 patients undergoing elective resection for colorectal carcinoma between Jan. 1971-Dec. 1978 showed no significant trend in the proportion of right colon carcinomas resected during this time. There was a higher proportion of advanced-stage tumors in the right colon than in the rectum. Patients with carcinoma of the right colon had a significantly poorer survival than did patients with rectal carcinoma.This publication has 17 references indexed in Scilit:
