Summary: | Background
Limited data on the relationship between postoperative complications (POCs) after colorectal cancer resection and oncologic outcomes are available. We hypothesized that the increased severity of POCs is associated with progressively worse oncologic outcomes.
Methods
Patients with pathological stages I–III colorectal adenocarcinoma undergoing elective curative resection in a single institution between 2000 and 2012 were identified from a prospectively collected database. The severity of POCs was determined using the Clavien–Dindo classification, and oncologic outcomes were assessed.
Results
Of 2266 patients, 669 (30%) had at least one POC. POCs were not associated with pathologic stage (
p
= 0.58) or use of adjuvant therapy (
p
= 0.19). With a mean follow-up of 5.3 years, POCs were associated with decreased 5-year overall survival (OS) (60% vs. 77%,
