📌 3 Key Takeaways
🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Objective: We aimed to assess whether red cell distribution width (RDW) was associated with pre-operative clinical features or post-operative clinicopathological outcomes in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC), and to determine the utility of RDW as a diagnostic or prognostic marker of CRC.

Abstract
Objective: We aimed to assess whether red cell distribution width (RDW) was associated with pre-operative clinical features or post-operative clinicopathological outcomes in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC), and to determine the utility of RDW as a diagnostic or prognostic marker of CRC. Material and Method: This retrospective cohort study was conducted between January 2018 and May 2021 at a university hospital in Turkey. A total of 188 patients histologically diagnosed with CRC who had undergone surgery were included in the study. Results: Our study included 118 (62.77%) male patients, and the mean age of the patients was 66.28±11.71 years. We found that RDW values were significantly higher in females compared to males (p=0.033), in patients with T3 or T4 tumors compared to those with T1 or T2 tumors (p
