Core Tip	Previous works show evidence of both antitumoral- and tumor tolerance-directed effects of bacterial infections. The development of immunotherapies has commenced despite the lack in understanding of the underlying mechanism, or of the cancer-specific survival effects, of bacterial infections. To examine the effect of bacterial infections on cancer-specific survival, a retrospective study of colorectal cancer patients was performed. The results indicate that bacterial infections, as well as the accompanying increase in neutrophil counts, are associated with poor cancer survival. As a result, greater attention should be paid to treatment of infections incurred during or after cancer treatment.
