description | INTRODUCTION: Colorectal carcinoma is the most evident carcinoma in the elderly. Despite its high incidence and mortality rate, there is insufficient research about the best treatment options for colorectal carcinoma. OBJECTIVE: This study was designed to assess the best treatment modality for colorectal carcinoma in elderly Saudi patients. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective analysis of medical records at the Princess Norah Oncology Center (PNOC), King Abdulaziz Medical City, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. We included patients treated at PNOC between 2010 and 2015. Only patients aged above 70 years with advanced colon were included in the study. RESULTS: The cohort included 57 patients with an average age of 76.51 with 27 alive patients and 30 dead patients. Nonmucinous adenocarcinoma had significant higher mortality (n = 20). Most patients received surgical treatment which was associated with less risk for mortality; however, it was nonsignificant. Surgery was followed by first-line treatment which had a mortality rate of 50%. The least treatment associated with mortality was local liver treatment (n = 0). Survival analysis found that only treatment with significant higher survival was shift to next line of treatment (at least once) [HR = 0.06, 95% CI (0.00, 0.79), P value = 0.03]. Other treatments were not associated with significant mortality reduction. First-line treatment was associated with higher mortality risk; nevertheless, it was nonsignificant. CONCLUSION: Local radiotherapy and local liver ablation had the least mortality rate. However, in multivariate Cox regression analysis, we found that shift to next line of treatment was associated with the significant high survival rate. |
