Differences in Colorectal Cancer Survival Based on Primary Tumor Location: Retrospective Study from a Single Institution.

ABSTRACT: Objective: The location of the primary tumor in colorectal cancer (CRC) could be a prognostic factor related to survival. However, its usefulness has not been sufficiently analyzed. The results in patients with tumors in initial stages are very limited, and there are descriptive parameters of survival that have not been analyzed in detail. In this study, the relationship between primary tumor location and survival in CRC patients was analyzed. Materials And Methods: This was a retrospective observational study. All patients treated consecutively for CRC between January 2005 and December 2019 in the same hospital center were included. Overall survival (OS), cancer-related survival (CRS), time to recurrence (TTR), relapse-free survival (RFS) and postrecurrence survival (PRS) we
