“…Several studies indicate that the surgical outcome is improved by careful planning and if performed by highskilled surgeons [35][36][37]. Our morbidity rate is similar to other published figures [4][5][6], and we have a mortality rate within the range published [1,3,4,6,38], indicating that the surgery performed was of high quality.…”

“…A population study carried out in Great Britain showed that mortality rate after a resection of oesophageal, gastric and pancreatic cancers was indirectly proportional to the number of cases previously operated on by the surgeon [2]. Similar observations concern the risk of post-operative complications in patients operated on for colorectal cancer [3], yet it is the individual experience of the surgeon and the entire surgical team is built not only from the number of the surgeries performed, but it comes also from a critical analysis of the results and the rate of the complications, perioperative mortality, the length of hospital stay etc. Therefore, it is not a surprise that an increasing number of data supports the argument that every surgeon should have the chance to critically monitor the results of the treatment they have conducted [4].…”

The current treatment of GI tract tumours is based to a large degree on the combined use of varied types of therapy: surgery, chemotherapy, irradiation. Severe post-operative complications may significantly affect the possibilities of application of non-surgical methods of treatment. Therefore, monitoring the early results of surgical treatment is extremely crucial to ensuring the appropriate necessary follow up and keep the risk of post-operative complications to a minimum. This paper describes the methodology of prospective collection of clinical data, which allows monitoring the quality of the surgical treatment of GI tumours on a current basis. On the basis of the data collected in the period from 2010 to 2015, the results of the analysis of three types of surgeries were presented (anterior resection of the anus, right hemicolectomy and a total gastric resection) and the actions taken on the basis of the annual report concerning the post-operative complication risks were described. Moreover, the examples of the application of prospectively collected clinical information for academic purposes were presented. NOWOTWORY J Oncol 2016; 66, 6: 433-439

“…This high rate of prevalence of colorectal cancer among young people is attributed to the age structure of the young in these countries and the rate of prevalence among the elderly compared to Western countries (Ansari et al, 2007). The reported 5-Year survival in Europe is 56% for men and 60% for women (Angell-Andersen et al, 2004;Omejc et al, 2004) [In their study conducted in England, Anwar et al, (2012) reported 5-year survival rate to be 50%. Farzianpour et al, (2013) indicated that the general quality of life among patients with cancer is low in Iran.…”

Objective:Colorectal cancer is one of the most common causes of death in the world. Despite of remarkable advances in medical sciences, cancer is an important disease and the second cause of death after cardiovascular diseases. The present study was aimed at determining the survival rate of colorectal cancer in Iran.Methods:The present study is a systematic review of national and international electronic databases. Studies that had the inclusion criteria were included in the study, electronically published articles over December 2007 and March 2015 were retrieved. The collected data were analyzed by meta-analytic method through stata 11.0 Software, and the survival rate was measured.Results:The 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-year survival rates of colorectal cancer in Iran were respectively calculated as 85, 75.10, 65, 55.40, and 52. The results indicated that there is a significant relationship between anatomic location of tumor and survival rate. According to the results of this examination, survival rate of the patients with rectal cancer was 41.9 times higher than those with colorectal cancer.Conclusion:Due to the relative high prevalence of this cancer among young people in Iran and the low survival rate, early diagnosis of colorectal neoplasms is necessary before they become symptomatic through more effective diagnosis programs of enhancing the patients’ health and survival rate. Moreover, it is necessary to conduct more specialized and relevant studies in order to determine genetic or environmental causes of cancer such as diet and cultural and behavioral habits at the national level and with different ethnicities.

Surgical specialization and training – its relation to clinical outcome for colorectal cancer surgery

Abstract: The outcomes in colorectal surgery continue to steadily improve. The training of specialized colorectal surgeons is a major contributing factor towards this improvement.
