title: [Surgery of cancer of the right colon. Analysis of 265 cases].
abstract: The analysis of 265 selected cases of right colon cancer treated over a long period of time allows a number of points to be raised. Attention is drawn to the lack of progress made in diagnostic techniques, but this is thought to be due primarily to the vagueness of symptoms and their scarse investigation rather than to limits imposed by instrumental techniques. Moreover, no real benefit would be produced by a more aggressive approach using visceral or lymphatic exeresis. An earlier diagnosis of tumours due to differentiation, slow growth and rare association with adenoma should allow more encouraging results to be achieved.
