Values are presented as number (%) or median (IQR). K hospital applied emergency surgery and R hospital applied TCT as the first-line standard treatment for CRC with ACO. K hospital, Kasugai Municipal Hospital, Kasugai, Japan; TCT, transanal colorectal tube; R hospital, Nagoya Daini Red Cross Hospital, Nagoya, Japan; LAC, laparoscopy-assisted colectomy; IQR, interquartile range.
