Why the study?
What are the clinical outcomes and survival rates of colorectal cancer surgery when performed by non-specialist general surgeons?
What are the clinical outcomes and survival rates of colorectal cancer surgery when performed by non-specialist general surgeons?
Colorectal cancer surgery performed by non-specialist surgeons can achieve acceptable survival rates, suggesting disease-related variables may have a greater influence on survival than surgeon specialization.
