Key takeaways:
Emergency colorectal cancer care is not equitable worldwide 🌍
Patients in lower-income settings face systemic disadvantages 📉
Improving outcomes will require investment in systems, workforces, and access — not just earlier diagnosis 🔧

With @EuroSurg, we are pleased to share our second paper from APOLLO 📑
APOLLO was a global, prospective study on acute presentations of colorectal cancer 🌍
This work in @DCRjournal focuses on endoscopic stenting in acute malignant left-sided colonic obstruction ⬇️
1/
Main takeaways:
Endoscopic stenting has value in acute presentations of malignant left-sided obstruction but availability is limited, particularly in LMICs 🌍
Expanding access could be a cost-effective global health investment as colorectal cancer incidence rises 📈
