| Popis: | We would like to thank Bethune et al. for their comments on our article. We acknowledge (and acknowledged) that there were limitations in submitting for publication a retrospective survival analysis, one without morbidity and quality of life data. However, we also believed that it was important to contribute to the scarcity of literature on surgical resection of colorectal cancer in the nonagenarian population, particularly as these patients and their families expect to discuss surgery when confronted with their diagnosis.
