    Author: Del Cimmuto P, Gentile G, De Berardinis O, De Laurentis D, Della Sciucca A, Lalli T, Cellini G.
    Journal: Chir Ital; 1983 Dec; 35(6):916-32. PubMed ID: 6084564.
    Abstract:
    Fifty four cases of acute large bowel obstruction were observed in an overall groups of 266 patients with colonic carcinoma. Pre-operative elements which seems to contra-indicate a primary radical surgery and advantages of the same procedure are considered. In the experience of the Authors, primary and delayed staged resection of the cancer seems to give the same survival rate at short and long term. Choice of surgery of obstructive large bowel carcinoma should be based pratically on general patient's conditions.
