Prevalence, incidence and trends of keratinocyte carcinoma in Denmark 2007-2021: A population-based register study.

Introduction: The incidence of keratinocyte carcinoma (KC), i.e., basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), is increasing worldwide, placing a significant burden on healthcare resources.

Non-Curative Treatment Choices in Colorectal Cancer: Predictors and Between-Hospital Variations in Denmark: A Population-Based Register Study.

Background: Variations in treatment choices have been reported in colorectal cancer (CRC). In the context of national recommendations, we aimed to elucidate predictors and between-hospital variations in refraining from curatively intended surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy in potentially curable colorectal cancer.

Methods: A total of 34,116 patients diagnosed with CRC from 2009 to 2018 were included for analyses on non-curative treatment in this register-based study.

Uneven Between-Hospital Distribution of Patient-Related Risk Factors for Adverse Outcomes of Colorectal Cancer Treatment: A Population-Based Register Study.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to elucidate between-hospital variation in the prevalence at the time of diagnosis of patient-related risk factors for adverse outcomes of colorectal cancer (CRC) treatment.

Patients And Methods: A register-based national cohort of 44,471 patients diagnosed with CRC and registered in the Danish Colorectal Cancer Group database in 2009-2018 was included in the study. Patient-related risk factors present at diagnosis were collected from national Danish registers within the areas of demography, lifestyle factors, comorbidity, participation in screening, disease-related factors and socioeconomic factors.

Differences in treatment and survival in young and elderly patients with colorectal cancer.

Introduction: The incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC) in patients ≤ 40 years of age seems to follow an increasing trend worldwide. Previous studies have reported conflicting data on treatment intensity and survival in young patients with CRC. The aim of this study was to describe treatment and survival data in a national cohort of young Danish CRC patients in the 2001-2013 period and to compare these data with data on a national cohort of elderly patients with CRC.

Anastomosis technique and leakage rates in minimally invasive surgery for right-sided colon cancer. A retrospective national cohort study.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to describe the different techniques currently used in Denmark to construct right-sided ileocolic anastomoses in minimally invasive surgery, and investigate, compare and analyse the anastomotic configurations and their anastomotic leakage (AL) rates.

Methods: This was a retrospective register-based, study design using prospectively collected data from the Danish Colorectal Cancer Group (DCCG) database. All patients aged 18 years or older with a malignant colorectal tumour in Denmark in the period of 1 February 2015 until 31 December 2019, and who had an elective, curative, minimally invasive right hemicolectomy (MIRH) with ileocolic anastomosis, were included.
