    With improvements across the colorectal cancer care continuum, from screening and earlier detection to better systemic options, patients are living longer with the disease. Given these improvements over the last several decades, quality of life outcomes have become important components when evaluating treatment efficacy and adverse effects. This article reviews quality of life measurement generally, discusses tools currently being used in colorectal cancer patients, and reviews outcomes following both surgical and nonsurgical management from clinical trials, observational studies, and meta-analyses.
