Abstract

This research addresses the issue of morbidity and mortality in colorectal surgery due to colon neoplasia, taking into account that colon cancer is the most common malignant tumor of the digestive tract, the same one that can currently be treated with a low mortality rate. The main objective of the research was focused on analyzing morbidity and mortality in colorectal surgery due to colon neoplasia in patients who attended the Teodoro Maldonado Carbo Specialty Hospital. From the methodological point of view, a descriptive, observational, retrospective, cross-sectional and descriptive investigation was carried out with a sample of 200 patients with colorectal cancer, aged between 13 and 102 years, treated at the HTMC, in the intermediate period between the month of January 2018 to December 2020. Among the main results, it is observed that there is a prevalence of patients with ages detected between 64- 74 years corresponding to 21.5%, male with 54%. In addition, 28% of the patients had colon cancer at the level of the ascending colon, 41.5% were foundto be stage IIIB, 56.5% were treated by left hemicolectomy, and 47% had welldifferentiated, infiltrating adenocarcinoma. It is concluded that the mortality rate of patients treated with colorectal surgery due to colon neoplasia was 37% of the student patients in the investigation.
