[The surgical procedure in tumor-induced colonic obstruction in patients at an elevated surgical risk]

Abstract

A comparative assessment of results of palliative and radical operations in 250 patients has proved efficiency of radical operations which were followed by less lethality rate in patients with high operative risk. A conclusion is made that wider indications to radical operations for patients of older age groups even those with different risk factors is one of perspective ways to improve results of surgical treatment of patients with obturative obstruction caused by colonic tumour of any localization.
