Core Tip |
Fibrinogen is involved in tumourigenesis and in tumour progression in several malignancies. Many studies, particularly from East, have shown a correlation between hyperfibrinogenemia and poor prognosis in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). This study involves a large cohort of 652 Western patients underwent surgery for CRC. The analysis of our data demonstrates that preoperative fibrinogen plasma levels correlate with leading prognostic factors in patients undergoing surgery for CRC. Although long-term survival and tumour-related survival are worse in patients with hyperfibrinogenemia, these findings are not confirmed in multivariate analysis or after stratification of patients according to completeness of tumour resection and TNM stage.
