A Belgian Population-Based Study Reveals Subgroups of Right-sided Colorectal Cancer with a Better Prognosis Compared to Left-sided Cancer
Abstract Background Patients with left-sided colorectal cancer (L-CRC) are known to have a significantly better prognosis than those with right-sided CRC (R-CRC). It has been hypothesized that RAS, BRAF mutations, or deficient mismatch repair status (MMR) might be responsible for the prognostic effect of primary tumor location (PTL). This study aims to evaluate the prognostic effect of PTL in the Belgian population and to determine the role of biomarkers (MMR, BRAF, and RAS status) in this effect. Patients and Methods We performed a retrospective analysis of Belgian Cancer Registry data. First... Mehr ...
