The purpose of this study is to explore the impact of tumor-associated inflammatory adhesion on the prognosis of colon cancer patients.
In some colon cancer patients, although adhesions between the tumor tissue and surrounding organs are found during surgery, postoperative pathology confirms that the tumor has not directly invaded the adhered organs; instead, the adhesions are caused by tumor-associated inflammation. This condition is defined as tumor-associated inflammatory adhesion. Currently, the impact of tumor-associated inflammatory adhesion on patient prognosis is still unclear. This study aims to explore the impact of tumor-associated inflammatory adhesion on the prognosis of colon cancer patients through the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) and Chinese multi-center databases.
