THE EXPERIENCE OF PERFORMING CYTOREDUCTIVE AND PALLIATIVE OPERATIONS FOR METASTATIC COLORECTAL CANCER

The study reports on some results of cytoreductive and palliative operations in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. 26 patients underwent cytoreductive operations, 21 patients underwent palliative operations simultaneously. Recent treatment results have been researched in both groups. The authors made the conclusions about necessity of the combined cytoreductive and palliative operations in these groups of patients. All this does not lead to a considerable increasing in post-operative complications, but increase the survival rate and prevent the development of different tumor growth complications.
