Factors associated with lymph node metastasis and survival in T2 colon cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

This study aimed to explore the clinical factors associated with lymph node metastasis (LNM) and survival in T2 colon cancer.

Method

Patients with T2 colon cancer and receiving radical surgery from 2017 to 2021 in our hospital were retrospectively enrolled. Patients were divided into two groups according to the LN status (LNM, non-LNM). The demographic, radiological, pathological, and survival data were collected and analyzed. Logistic regression was used to find the factors associated with LNM, and cox regression was adopted to identify factors contributing to poor survival. All the data analysis was performed by SPSS 22.0 and R.
