Abstract

AbstractRacial inequities in short and long-term outcomes following colorectal surgery continue to persist. Using inflammatory bowel disease and colorectal cancer as disease foci, we review existing racial inequities in surgical outcomes and complications, discuss how social determinants of health and biopsychosocial factors can contribute to these inequities, and highlight potential mechanisms for building interventions to achieve health equity following colorectal surgery for minority populations.
