Notes:

Relative survival:Cancer survival in the absence of other causes of death is calculated using survival life tables. Relative survival is defined as the ratio of the proportion of observed survivors (all causes of death) in a cohort of cancer patients to the proportion of expected survivors in a comparable cohort of cancer-free individuals. The formulation is based on the assumption of independent competing causes of death. Since a cohort of cancer-free individuals is difficult to obtain, we use expected life tables and assume that the cancer deaths are a negligible proportion of all deaths.


Localized Stage represents invasive cancer confined to the organ of origin or intralumenal extension where specified as an intralumenal extension to immediately contiguous segments of the large bowel.

Regional Stage represents direct extension to adjacent organs or tissues or involvement of the regional lymph nodes.

Distant Stage represents direct continuity to non-adjacent organs, discontinuous metastasis or involvement of the distant lymph nodes.

Survival data from the Michigan Cancer Surveillance Program are developed through passive surveillance of mortality by matching the registry with state and national mortality files.
