Overview

Retrospective cohort study reveals pneumonia significantly affects survival and hospital outcomes.

Key Points

  • Pneumonia significantly reduced overall survival by 8.3% after two years, highlighting its serious impact.
  • Anastomotic leak contributed to 39.8% of reoperations and prolonged hospital stays by 56.9%, indicating urgent need for prevention.
  • Respiratory failure had the largest effect on 90-day mortality, with a population-attributable fraction of 53.5%.
  • No significant impact was observed on long-term quality of life despite the severity of complications.
