Popis: The objective of this study was to determine surgical morbidity and long-term outcome of colorectal cancer surgery for quality control reasons and as the basis for new treatment modalities. Surgically treated colorectal cancer patients (mean age 65 years) were followed prospectively in a university center (110 months mean follow-up, 1978-1999). Overall survival (OAS), radicality, extent of resection, recurrence, and morbidity were analyzed (log-rank test of survival, multivariate analysis). Altogether, 2452 colorectal cancers localized in the colon (CC, 44.6%), rectum (RC, 44.8%) or multicentric (CRC, 10.6%) were of UICC stages I (19%), II (30%), III (21%), IV (20%), or undetermined (10%). Radicality and stage but not tumor localization influenced the OAS (p
