Abstract
Cases of colorectal cancer operated on at the Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois (CHUV) during the past 26 years have been reviewed retrospectively. Emphasis has been placed on surgical treatment and changes in prognosis over this period, with the aim of analysing, on the one hand, factors which remained constant and, on the other hand, progress that has been made over the last 26 years.
