Abstract: Objective To analyze the effect of different postoperative nutrition:enteral nutrition( EN) and parenteral nutrition( PN) in patients with colorectal cancer. Methods 84 patients with colorectal cancer were collected in this study from Jan. 2012 to Jan. 2014, and they were divided into the EN group (43 cases) and the PN group (41 cases). They were given EN or PN after operation. The nutritional parameters such as ALB, TF and PA were detected before surgery and 7 days after operation, Observe the adverse reaction, time of gastroin-testinal function recovery, infection and costs after operation. Results There was no statistical difference (P>0. 05) in the nutritional pa-rameters and rate of adverse reaction between the two groups. The rate of infection in EN group was lower than that in PN group(P<0. 01), and the time of gastrointestinal function recovery was shorter in EN group compared with that in PN group (P<0. 01). Conclusion EN is better in recovery of gastrointestinal function, and there is less complication compared to PN. EN have clinical application value for patients with gastrointestinal cancer.
