Quantifying and mitigating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on outcomes in colorectal cancer

2020-05-05

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> The COVID-19 pandemic has caused disruption across cancer pathways for diagnosis and treatment. In England, 32% of colorectal cancer (CRC) is diagnosed via urgent symptomatic referral from primary care, the “2-week-wait” (2WW) pathway. Access to routine endoscopy is likely to be a critical bottleneck causing delays in CRC management due to chronic limitation in capacity, acute...
