✦ Synopsis

This retrospective study analyses the prognostic effect of different factors on morbidity and lethality based on selected, primarily resecting colon carcinoma operations (n = 222). In all, 12.2% of our operations were performed under emergency conditions. The total complication rate was 31.5%, the lethality rate 7.7%. The left hemicolectomy cases showed the highest morbidity (48.4%), the rectum amputation the highest lethality (11.8%). Tumour staging tumour differentiation and the sex of the patient showed no significant influence on the postoperative morbidity and lethality. However, a correlation was proved between the age of the patient, tumour localisation, co-morbidity, duration of operation and the conditions under which the operation was performed (emergency or elective), on the one hand, and morbidity and lethality on the other.
