Project Details
Description
Previously published studies have shown the association between sarcopenia and short- and long-term postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery. Objective: To assess the association between radiologically defined sarcopenia measured by psoas density, anastomotic leakage and other postoperative outcomes in patients having a colorectal cancer resection.
