Abstract:
Malnutrition and septic complications, as well as general anaesthesia, blood transfusion, extent and duration of operation may lead to weakening of the immune system in patients with colonic carcinoma. Complications and related worse prognosis were noted in patients with malnutrition and septic complications. The problems of malnutrition and septic complications in patients operated on for colonic carcinoma may be factors underestimated in surgical practice.
