Article Description

Colorectal cancer is a major global health burden, with surgical resection being the standard treatment aimed at curative tumor removal. Oxidative stress is crucial in colorectal cancer progression and prognosis. This study hypothesizes that the physical removal of colorectal cancer, a primary source of oxidative stress, would reduce blood levels of reactive oxygen metabolite derivatives (d-ROMs), a marker of oxidative stress. This study included 123 patients who underwent radical resection for colorectal cancer. d-ROM levels were measured before and after surgery. The clinicopathological analysis showed a correlation between preoperative d-ROM levels and tumor size. This study confirmed a significant reduction in d-ROM levels following tumor resection. The d-ROM ratio before and after tumor resection was significantly higher in cases with positive lymph node metastasis and larger tumor size. These results suggest that d-ROM levels could serve as a valuable biomarker for monitoring tumor burden in patients with colorectal cancer.
