Comparison of tumour-based (Petersen Index) and inflammation-based (Glasgow Prognostic Score) scoring systems in patients undergoing curative resection for colon cancer #24
This paper compares the Petersen Index (PI) and the modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS) in patients undergoing curative resection of colon cancer.
Results of this study validate the use of the PI in predicting cancer-specific survival in patients undergoing elective potentially curative for Dukes’ B colon cancer. Furthermore, the results indicate that the mGPS further stratifies those patients with Dukes’ B and single node positive Dukes’ C cancers, classified as low risk by the PI. The PI and mGPS scoring systems could, therefore, be combined at a multi-disciplinary meeting to identify those patients with colorectal cancer who have undergone potentially curative surgery but are at high risk of cancer related death.
