This article describes how colorectal carcinomas (CRC) are the fourth most frequently diagnosed cancer. However, despite advances in specific treatment, approximately 40% to 50% of patients have disease recurrence following potentially curative surgery, highlighting the demand for improvement of...

This paper aims to systematically review the cost-effectiveness evidence, and to provide a critical appraisal of the methods used in the model-based economic evaluation of CRC screening and subsequent surveillance. A search strategy was developed to capture relevant evidence published...

Patient navigation has expanded as a promising approach to improve cancer care coordination and patient adherence. This paper addresses the need to identify the evidence on the economic impact of patient navigation in colorectal cancer, following the Health Economic Evaluation Publication...
