Association between enrollment in an enhanced recovery program for colorectal cancer surgery and long‐term recurrence and survival

Abstract

cancer stage compared to pre-ERAS counterparts. ConclusionsPatients with advanced colorectal cancer were less likely to suffer oncologic recurrence when managed during the ERAS period. Additional prospective trials are necessary to determine causation and identify best practice principles associated with long-term recurrence and survival.

Association between enrollment in an enhanced recovery program for colorectal cancer surgery and long‐term recurrence and survival

“…We have read with interest the article published by Zorrilla-Vaca et al 1 At present, there are many studies on enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS), and their conclusions are generally that enhanced recovery surgery can significantly reduce the incidence of postoperative complications in cancer patients. At the same time, it can also reduce the cost of hospitalization and shorten the length of hospitalization.…”
