Data were collected from medical records. The primary outcome was the length of the resected terminal ileum. Secondary outcomes were to assess if body mass index (BMI), surgical approach, and neoadjuvant chemotherapy affected the length of the terminal ileum specimen, and to report the length of the colon specimen subdivided on the cancer locations.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>In total, 50 patients were included. The median age was 74\u2009years (range 36\u201391), 30 patients (60%) were females, and BMI was median 26 (range 17\u201345). The variation in the length of terminal ileum specimen was median 5\u00a0cm (range 1\u201317). The explorative analyses showed significant positive correlation between the length of terminal ileum specimen and BMI (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.050) but not surgical approach (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.23) nor neoadjuvant chemotherapy (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.51).
