Purpose To provide an analysis of conditional survival (CS) in rectal cancer patients. Cancer
survival is typically reported in terms of survival from time of diagnosis. CS can provide …

BACKGROUND: Conditional survival estimates account for time survived since diagnosis to
provide prognostic information for long-term cancer survivors. For rectal cancer, stage …

Background For rectal cancer patients who have already survived a period of time after
diagnosis, survival probability changes and is more accurately depicted by conditional …

Background: The increasing number of colorectal cancer (CRC) survivors need survival
estimates that account for the time already survived. The aim of this population-based study …

Purpose Conditional survival (CS) estimates provide important prognostic information for
clinicians and patients who have survived a period after diagnosis. In this study we …

PURPOSE: We report colon cancer survival rates that are conditioned on patients having
already survived one or more years after diagnosis. These rates have more meaning …

Aim With the increase in the number of long-term colorectal cancer (CRC) survivors, there is
a growing need for subgroup-specific analysis of conditional survival. Methods All 137,030 …

Background Treatment options for colorectal cancer (CRC) have improved substantially over
the past 25 years. Measuring the impact of these improvements on survival outcomes is …

Background Little is known about colorectal cancer or colon and rectal cancer. Are they the
same disease or different diseases? Objectives The aim of this epidemiology study was to …

BACKGROUND Conditional survival is clinically useful, particularly for patients with
malignant disease who have a poor prognosis. However, there are no published data on the …
