Biopsy-proven colorectal adenocarcinoma in UHC Rijeka patients in 2015

OBJECTIVE: To contribute to the collection of histopathological and clinical data of colorectal adenocarcinoma. Also to present carcinoma associated histopathological data (dimensions, localization, histologic grade, Dukes classification etc.) MATERIALS AND METHODS: Our center provided pathohistological data of all CHC Rijeka colorectal biopsies in 2015. RESULTS: Altogether biopsies were performed in 211 patients and their mean age was 69.0±11.9. 132 (62.6%) patients were male and 79 (37.4%) were female. Most colorectal adenocarcinoma (61.6%) were localised in rectosigmoid part. Other localizations were: caecum ascendens (28.4%), transversum (1.9%) and descendens (8.1%). The mean dimension was 4.63±1.95 cm. 2.84% tumors were pT1, 8.06% pT2, 61.14% pT3 and 27.96% pT4. Every adenocarcinoma has its associated Dukes classification. 7.6% tumors were stage A, 42.2% stage B, 45% stage C and 5.2% stage D. 78.20% had lymphovascular invasion and 30.33% perineural invasion. 82% adenocarcinoma had infiltrative tumor border, 6.2% expansive border and 11.8% had mixed border. CONCLUSION: This study confirmed that colorectal adenocarcinoma is a very common type of cancer, both in men and women. Most frequently it is localised in the rectosigmoid part. It is very important to discover colorectal adenocarcinoma in its early stage with colonoscopy and biopsy.
