Hypertension Remission after Colorectal Cancer Surgery: A Single-Center Retrospective Study.

ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of colorectal cancer surgery on hypertension. Patients who underwent colorectal cancer surgery were retrospectively enrolled. Hypertension before and 1 year after colorectal cancer surgery was recorded. As a result, eighty patients had remission of hypertension, 307 patients had no remission 1 year after colorectal cancer surgery, and the remission rate was 20.7%. In conclusion, patients with concurrent colorectal cancer and hypertension had a 20.7% remission rate 1 year after colorectal cancer surgery. Age, but not the type of surgery, was a predictive factor for the remission of hypertension.
