Obstructive colonic cancer

Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1978
The clinical courses of 68 patients with obstructive colonic cancers were reviewed. For the majority of patients with an acutely obstructing cancer of the left colon a conventional staged procedure remains the most appropriate treatment. Primary resection is suitable for the more proximal colonic cancer with obstruction.

Geriatric colon cancer

The American Journal of Surgery, 1973
Abstract Two hundred twenty-six patients eighty years of age or older were seen over a twelve year period, and 156 underwent surgery. These patients tolerated surgery well when complications were avoided. The five year absolute survival rate was 22.4 per cent, and the corresponding age corrected figure was 53.3 per cent. On the basis of this analysis,

Colon heat and colon cancer

Medical Hypotheses, 2000
Epidemiological findings on the relation between foods and colon cancer are inconsistent. Many, but far from all, found positive associations for meat and fat and negative ones for vegetables and fruits. Explanations so far have focused on direct biochemical conversions in the colon or transit time, but they remain unable to explain the contradictory ...
