A pilot study to investigate if the mesenteric circumferential location of colon cancer affects survival when compared to the anti-mesenteric side

Abstract Colorectal cancer is a leading cause of death in the western world. The main datum that is employed to guide treatment and prognosis are related to the pathological stage and the genetics of the cancer. Recent electron-microscopic study of the colonic border has suggested a difference betwe...
