Correction to: Tumour deposit count is an independent prognostic factor in colorectal cancer—a population-based cohort study
Objective:
To correct a discrepancy in the original publication regarding tumor location in colorectal cancer patients.
Key Findings:
- Both TD-positive and TD-negative tumors were more commonly located in the left colon.
- Right-sided tumors were relatively more frequent among TD-positive patients.
Interpretation:
The ambiguity in phrasing did not affect the overall results due to the inclusion of tumor location as a variable in the regression analysis.
Limitations:
- The correction addresses a specific phrasing issue but does not alter the study's conclusions.
Conclusion:
The correction clarifies the original findings without impacting the study's results.
