This study delves into the postoperative outcomes of digestive cancer surgeries with curative intent in a low-mid income country. Analyzing data from 76 patients, the study revealed that immediate preoperative morbidity was around 36.84%, with a mortality rate of 5.26%. At 90 days post-surgery, morbidity remained consistent, while mortality increased to 7.9%. The research identified several risk factors contributing to higher morbidity and mortality, including factors like gender, obesity, and surgical approaches. This study sheds light on the challenges and outcomes of digestive cancer surgery in low-mid income settings.
