Abstract
By the end of 2020, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) would have indelibly marked the cancer care setting. With Italy at the forefront of pandemic, unprecedented measures were adopted to tackle the quality care issue. As a result of pausing screening programs, diagnostic delays might affect the years to come. Aim of our multicenter Italian study is to evaluate whether the COVID-19 outbreak has impacted on likelihood of receiving timely diagnosis, staging and treatment for colorectal cancer (CRC) patients (pts) after March 2020 compared to pre-pandemic time.
