Extremes of Age Versus Middle Decades of Life: A Population‐Based Analysis of Colorectal Cancer Survival in Queensland, Australia
Patients diagnosed at EoA had a poorer 5YCSS compared to patients diagnosed in MDoL. Stage IV patients at EoA had poorer 5YSSS compared to patients in MDoL. This finding may be a result of more aggressive behaviour of CRC in young patients, within each stage, and increased frailty and comorbidity in older patients.
