Does quality of life depend on the size of the tumor, location, advancement or type of treatment undertaken? * How do patients rate the received social support both before and after laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer and right colon cancer ? * Did the obtained social support in the patient at each stage of the disease ( before surgery, after surgery) depend on the advancement of the oncological lesion, the location of the tumor lesion and the treatment undertaken ? 2 Methodology of the study The study will be carried out at the General Surgery Clinical Department of the John Grande Hospital of the Order of St. John of God in Krakow after obtaining permission from the facility's management.
