[Prognostic anatomical features in the colon-rectum carcinoma (author's transl)].

We have reviewed 415 cases of colon-rectum carcinoma in order to establish the most important prognostic anatomical features. Furthermore, we have examined the associated adenomatous polyps, and the possible relationships between anatomical and histological aspects and Dukes stage of carcinoma. We have searched for some useful parameters to decide whether 5 centimeters between neoplasia and resection line is the correct surgical treatment.

The surgical management of Crohn's disease of the colon.

The authors analyze their experience in the management of 64 cases of Crohn's disease, located in the colon in 47 cases. The clinical and therapeutical aspects are discussed with particular attention to the surgical problems for which even today there is no general consensus of opinion especially when the colon is involved.

[Surgical treatment of colo-rectal tumors. Immediate and long-term results in 1749 cases].

An assessment is made of the development of surgical techniques and results obtained throughout a series of 1748 cases of colon and rectum cancer observed over a period of 40 years. Attempts to improve survival have included an extension of lymph duct resection. This approach has proved successful, though a longer period of study is still needed. Lastly, rectal cancer is examined in terms of survival in function of various biological factors associated with the neoplasia.
