Abstract:
It is important for patients with colorectal cancer to receive standard and reasonable treatment. There are many clinical practice guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of colorectal cancer. However, the most influential guidelines are NCCN, ESMO and NICE guidelines. NCCN guidelines are the most world-renowned guidelines from National Comprehensive Cancer Network of the United States; ESMO guidelines are promulgated by the European Society for Medical Oncology; NICE guidelines are guidance of diagnosis and management for colorectal cancer issued by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence of the United Kingdom. They are very similar in case management and treatment principles. However, there are still some differences in indications for drugs, treatment of hereditary colorectal cancer, laparoscopy indication and management of ileus. Here we discuss some of these differences and provide a reference for standardization of colorectal cancer treatment in China.
