The Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) Score Predicts Post-operatory Risks and Prognosis in Patients With Surgically Treated Colon Cancer: A Retrospective Study.

In the light of our results, we encourage to systematically resort to the CONUT score classification in all CC patients scheduled for a curative surgery. Preoperative correction of CONUT parameters through artificial nutrition or other measures appears mandatory as it can drastically improve the postoperative course as well as the long-term prognosis of these subjects.
