Core Tip |
Although radical surgery for colorectal cancer improves the oncological outcomes, a significant portion of patients suffer from alterations in their quality of life (QoL). There are many studies investigating the QoL of patients who have colorectal cancer but none of these focus on the QoL of spoueses.. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first prospective and comparative study investigating the QoL following colorectal cancer surgery in both the patients and their spouses during the same time frame. The results of this study showed that patients as well as their spouses QoL was affected following colorectal cancer surgery. |
