摘要
Background: Little information is available on the impact that therapies used in the treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC) have on long-term, health-related quality of life (HRQL). Knowledge of how HRQL is affected by these therapies is essential in properly selecting patients for treatment. The purpose of this study was to determine the long-term impact that surgical and adjuvant therapy for resectable CRC has on patient-reported HRQL in a male veteran population through a case-control design.
