| Core Tip |
This review evaluates the impact of statin therapy on postoperative outcomes following colorectal cancer surgery. The study focuses on cohort studies to show how statin use, particularly its timing and duration, may affect the risk of anastomotic leaks, surgical site infection, and short-term mortality. Despite conflicting data, a consistent trend toward reduced 30-day mortality was observed. Overall, these findings suggest the potential role of statins in colorectal cancer surgery, however due to the heterogeneity in definitions of statin therapy and limitations of study design there is a need for prospective studies to confirm their role in improving postsurgical outcomes. |
