Abstract

We conducted a retrospective observational study over a 6-year period (2018-2023) on patients aged over 50 with colorectal cancer (CRC), admitted to the Third Department of General Surgery, Clinical Emergency County Hospital. The patients were divided into two groups corresponding to two time periods: 2018-2020 and 2021-2023. The aim of the study was to evaluate changes in the profile of CRC patients over time through a comparative analysis of the two groups in terms of demographic, clinical, and therapeutic parameters. The study revealed a consistent increase in the incidence of CRC cases over the 6 years we analyzed. At the same time, we observed a more favorable profile of patients with CRC over 50 years old in the second group regarding admission type, a higher proportion of cases diagnosed at earlier stages, and a lower complication rate associated with CRC. These factors were reflected in better adherence to oncologic resection principles, a reduction in postoperative complications, and a shorter hospital stay. The direct consequence is an improvement in long-term prognosis and a decrease in the burden on healthcare systems. Furthermore, to tilt the balance towards early diagnosis of colorectal cancer, the implementation of a national screening program becomes imperative.

晚期结直肠癌三级外科患者的比较观察研究。
我们对县临床急诊医院普通外科三科收治的50岁以上结直肠癌(CRC)患者进行了为期6年(2018-2023)的回顾性观察研究。患者分为两组,分别对应2018-2020年和2021-2023年两个时间段。该研究的目的是通过对两组患者在人口学、临床和治疗参数方面的比较分析,来评估结直肠癌患者随着时间的变化。该研究显示,在我们分析的6年中,CRC病例的发生率持续增加。与此同时,我们观察到第二组50岁以上的CRC患者在入院类型上更有利,早期诊断的病例比例更高,CRC相关并发症发生率更低。这些因素反映在更好地遵守肿瘤切除原则,减少术后并发症和缩短住院时间。其直接后果是长期预后的改善和卫生保健系统负担的减轻。此外,为了使平衡向结直肠癌的早期诊断倾斜,实施国家筛查计划变得势在必行。
