Introduction:Singapore has one of the highest age-standardized incidence rates for colorectal cancer (CRC) at 35.1% in men and 29.9% in women which is almost double that of our neighboring Southeast Asian countries. Surgery is presently the mainstay in treatment of this cancer. This present study evaluates the clinical and prognostic characteristics of sporadic cancers treated by surgical resection in a single institution in an Asian population.Methods:1814 consecutive patients with CRC from 1999–2005 treated in the Department of Colorectal Surgery in Singapore General Hospital were reviewed. The clinciopathological characteristics of these patients were collected from a prospectively collected database maintained in the department since 1987. Univariate analysis was performed, and survival curves were constructed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Multivariate analysis was carried out on independent prognostic factors that were positive on univariate analysis.Results:All patients had a minimum follow up dura...
