Abstract
Aim Research shows survival disparities between Māori and non-Māori colon cancer patients, with comorbidity and cancer care being major contributing factors. We studied rectal cancer management and survival in a cohort of Māori and non-Māori patients with a newly diagnosed rectal cancer.
Methods 194 Maori and non-Maori patients diagnosed with rectal cancer between 2006 and 2008 were identified from the New Zealand Cancer Registry. Medical records were reviewed and patients compared on presentation, patient and tumour characteristics, and receipt and timing of treatment. Cox regression models were fitted to compare cancer-specific survival.
