INTRODUCTION
The pandemic keeps maintaining in the NHS (National Health System) a considerable delay in both diagnostic and therapeutic care. The aim of this study is to know the impact of the diagnostic delay of digestive tumors in HGUE (Hospital General Universitario de Elche), and how this has influenced the prognosis and survival of these patients.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
Two groups were established: pre-COVID19 (PREC), from March 16 to July 17, 2019; and post-COVID19 (PC), from March 16 to July 17, 2020. The study included all patients with an endoscopic test performed at HGUE during those periods.
RESULTS
In contrast to 2019, there has been a 58.96% reduction in scheduled tests, and colonoscopy has been the most affected technique. In addition, there has been an increase in the indication for constitutional syndrome and between all types, CRC (colorectal carcinoma) is remaining the most frequent type.
Finally, in terms of staging, while in 2019 most neoplasms were detected in stage 1, in PC stage 3 has been the most common at diagnosis.
CONCLUSIONS
COVID-19 has delayed digestive neoplasms diagnosis and, consequently, the prognosis of patients has decreased. It is essential to assume the delay caused by the pandemic, seeking the complete recovery of the collateral damage caused and resuming CRC prevention and screening programs.
