Effect of the systemic immune-inflammation index on postoperative complications and the long-term prognosis of patients with colorectal cancer: a retrospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignant tumors of the digestive tract. Surgery is the main way to cure CRC, but the postoperative complication rate and recurrence rate remain high. The systemic immune-inflammation (SII) index reflects a patient's systemic inflammatory state and immune state. Postoperative recurrence and the occurrence of complications are closely related to the inflammatory state and immune state. Thus, the SII index may have some value in predicting postoperative complications and the long-term prognosis of CRC patients, but relevant studies are currently lacking. The present study sought to examine the effect of the SII index on the postoperative complications and long-term prognosis of patients with CRC.
