BackgroundThe high prevalence of colorectal cancer (CRC) and its increasing incidence can be a major problem in cancer management. Preoperative staging plays a significant role in the therapeutic process, especially in CRC which has high risk for lung metastases.ObjectivesThis study aimed to evaluate accuracy of chest X-ray (CXR) in comparison with chest CT (CCT) for diagnosing lung metastases in patients with CRC.
Patients andMethodsA cross sectional study was conducted of 377 patients with newly diagnosed CRC which were evaluated with CXR and CCT.ResultsCCT revealed normal/benign findings in 285 (75.6%), indeterminate nodules in 28 (17%) and suspicious nodules in 64 (17%) patients. Although CXR did not reveal any pulmonary metastatic lesions in of the 23 (7%) patients, the measure of agreement between CXR and CCT was good (0.64, P < 0.01) and CCT changed TNM staging in only eight (2%) patients. On logistic regression analysis, liver metastasis could increase the risk of pulmonary metastasis (P < 0.01).ConclusionThe study suggested CCT for preoperative staging in CRC patients, especially at stages 3 and 4 in TNM staging and for liver metastases.Keywords: Colorectal Cancer (CRC), Chest CT (CCT), Chest X-Ray (CXR), Lung Metastases, Indeterminate Lung Lesions}
