[Carcinoma of transverse colon (author's transl)]. 1980

P Maillet, and J Baulieux, and J Boulez, and J Burion, and J L Peix, and R Donné

A personal series of 83 cases of carcinoma of transverse colon has been analysed, as the recent works of international literature. The low percentage of success of these cancers is justified by the anatomical conditions and the pathological findings. Particularly, this prognosis is made worse by the high percentage of multivisceral cancers, hepatic metastases and emergency cases. The operative technics are very different. Beside the typical resections (right or left hemicolectomy), there remains one more important place for segmental colectomy. At least the subtotal colectomy gets some more indications, especially in the high risk patients. Only 28% of the resected cases shows a 5 years survival rate. This percentage is nearly the same as most of the recents statistics.
