Abstract
This is the largest series of PALs. Our results demonstrate that age at diagnosis is an independent predictor of poor survival. Gender, race, histologic subtypes have no effect on OS, and hemicolectomy provides no survival benefit over appendectomy and/or partial colectomy. Additional prospective, multicenter studies including details about chemotherapy and immunotherapy are needed to guide management.
