Abstract
The survival rate of women with colorectal carcinoma is higher than that of men. This is true when censored survival rates are compared ( P = 0.0008) as well as when relative survival rates are utilized to compensate for the increased life expectancy of females. Women never pregnant ( n = 56) or women with no children ( n = 66) showed survival rates similar to men, but significantly different to women with one or more children. The actual number of children, however, did not correlate with survival rates.
