Abstract
Complications after colorectal cancer surgery in frail older patients frequently arise after discharge from hospital. Doctors should be aware of this and inform their patients. This is increasingly important as length of stay after surgery decreases. When complications are used as a quality measure, it should be clear whether only in-hospital complications are registered.
