[Carcinoma of the colon. Statistico-epidemiologic study carried out at Casale Monferrato Hospital].
The authors report here on the results of a statistical and epidemiological review of cases of carcinoma of the large bowel observed in the General Surgery Division of the Casale Monferrato Hospital. After supplying introductory data on the diffusion of the disease, risk factors and statistical aspects, the authors report data on 137 cases of large bowel carcinomatous neoplasms observed and treated over the period 1978-1984, complete with tables summarising the neoplastic localizations aid the types of operation performed. After calculating the operative mortality and both the absolute and relative survival rates, the authors analyze the results of the survey, comparing the findings obtained with those reported in the literature by various authors.
