Abstract:
During the period of 25 years from January 1978 through December 2002, a total of 808 colorectal cancer cases were operated on in Shirakawa Kosei General Hospital. The number of sugical resection cases came to 713 (ratio : 88.25%). Curative resection was performed on 593 cases (ratio : 73.4%). The total number of cases was broken down into 446 cases of cancer of the colon and 369 cases of cancer of the rectum (7 multiple cancer cases included). By sex, male cases numbered 329 and female cases 379. Clinically or histologically, many cases were diagnosed as stage IIIa or stage II cancer. The 5-year-survival rate for the resection cases was calculated at 67.2% and that for the cure resection cases, at 79.5%.
