| Abstract | Background: Colorectal cancer is a highly prevalent cancer around the world and Iran. There are different criteria that can affect the survival rate of this disease. Surgical margin status is one of these criteria; there are still challenges about how it can change the surveillance of the disease. Objectives: In this study, we assessed the relativity between surgical margin status and the stage of disease in Iranian patients suffering from colorectal cancer. Methods: This is an observational cross-sectional study. A total of 797 patients with colorectal cancer were included and a checklist of demographic, clinical, and pathological data was filled for each one. Based on the pathology result of the biopsy, the patients were divided into different histological groups. Surgical margin status was defined individually. To declare the relativity between surgical margin status and independent variables, we used Spearman’s rho test. Results: The stage of the disease and its histological type and grade were significantly correlated. There was also a significant correlation between histological grade and type of the disease. Conclusions: Surgical margin status and stage of the disease are challenging prognostic factors in disease recurrence and survival. The patients who participated in this study had meanly higher age and stage of diagnosis than earlier studies either global or local. It can be due to a lack of a systematic program for early detection of CR cancer in Iran that emphasizes the necessity of GI screening systems. | en |
