Core Tip |
The incidence of mucinous colorectal cancer (CRC) decreased in both young and older patients, which may play a role in the formation of guidelines on screening for CRC. When stratified by anatomic location, incidence rates declined in almost all anatomic subgroups except for mucinous adenocarcinoma (MC) in the appendix. Hence, clinicians should also pay attention to the increasing incidence of appendiceal MC. During the survival analysis, we found that age, race, tumor site, surgery, and chemotherapy were significantly associated with survival. A nomogram based on those factors as well as the tumor, node, and metastasis (TNM) tumor stages showed good predictive performance, which indicated that in addition to the TNM stages, characteristics such as tumor site, age, and race were also important in developing individualized treatment plans for patients with mucinous CRC. |
