Treatment and prognosis of colorectal cancer with synchronous peritoneal metastases: 11-year single institute experience.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC) with synchronous peritoneal metastases (SPM) is controversial, and its prognosis remains poor. Here, we analysed the association between treatment strategies and the outcomes of patients with colorectal SPM and devised a nomogram to improve their prognosis prediction.

Methods

The Kaplan-Meier method with log-rank tests was used to compare the overall survival (OS) among patients undergoing different therapeutic regimens. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to identify the prognostic factors. After variable selection, a nomogram was developed to predict the OS of
