Relationship between preoperative modified frailty index, immune-inflammation index, and outcomes of colorectal cancer surgery in older patients
Key Points
Postoperative complications and recurrence-free survival are significantly related to preoperative modified frailty index and immune-inflammation index.
The study found a strong correlation, indicating that higher frailty and inflammation scores lead to worse outcomes after colorectal cancer surgery.
Observational analysis focused on older patients with colorectal cancer, examining the impact of their health indices before surgery.
Understanding these correlations may enhance early detection and intervention strategies for complications and recurrences.
Abstract
In older patients with CRC, the preoperative mFI and SII were significantly correlated with postoperative complications and RFS, warranting closer attention to early recurrence detection and intervention.
