Systematic review reveals long-term outcomes vary post-surgery in low- and middle-income countries, suggesting urgent data needs.

Overall survival rates after colorectal cancer surgery were significantly varied across income groups, highlighting disparities.
Inclusion criteria led to a final selection of 154 articles involving 20,589 patients from low- and middle-income countries.
The study primarily focused on surgical outcomes measured by disease-free and overall survival rates for colorectal cancer.
Findings indicate a critical lack of data on long-term outcomes, particularly from low-income countries, necessitating further research.

Afolaranmi et al. (2025) studied this question.
