Clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of stage IV colorectal cancer

Abstract: The aim of this study was to determine the role of curative resection in metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) and determine the subset of patients who may benefit from concurrent curative resection of primary and metastatic lesions. A total of 103 patients diagnosed with synchronous liver and/or lung metastatic CRC at the Osaka Medical Center for Cancer and Cardiovascular Diseases between 1983 and 2010 were retrospectively investigated. All the patients underwent curative resection of the primary and metastatic … Show more

“…Several studies [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28] have reported that the TNM classification has significant prognostic value for stage IV colorectal cancer. Specifically, the type, number and spread of metastatic organs affect the prognosis of patients with stage IV disease.…”
