Brief summary

BACKGROUND: Textbook outcome (TO) is a multidimensional quality management tool that uses a set of traditional surgical measures to reflect an ideal surgical result for a particular pathology. The aim of the present study is to record the rate of TO in patients undergoing elective surgery for colon cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Retrospective study of all patients undergoing scheduled colon cancer surgery at a Spanish university hospital from September 2012 to August 2016. Patients with rectal cancer were excluded. The variables included in the definition of TO were: R0 resection, number of isolated nodes ≥12, no Clavien-Dindo ≥IIIa complications, no prolonged stay, no readmissions, and no mortality in the first 30 days. The main objective of this study is to analyse the achievement of TO in a series of patients undergoing scheduled colon cancer resection at the Doctor Balmis General University Hospital in Alicante, Spain. The investigators assess the relationship between TO and overall and disease-free survival, and analyse the indicators included in the definition of TO in colon cancer surgery in order to establish recommendations for its standardization.
