ImpactModerate impact

Several posts highlight the potential influence on surgical practices and clinical guidelines, indicating a recognition of the publication’s significance.

Abstract in brief

The study aimed to create an international consensus on defining specific segments of colon cancer to improve clinical decision-making and registry classifications through a three-round Delphi survey involving global experts.
Experts supported a standardized approach, including a 10cm rule for describing cancer sites and using anatomical landmarks, but differed on the classification of rectosigmoid tumors, with U.S. and European experts favoring abolishing the term compared to Asian experts.
The project focused on precisely localizing the affected colon segment rather than determining surgical treatment, with consensus achieved on certain definitions, although some decisions remained subjective based on individual clinical experience.]
