Nd-YAG laser treatment was employed as palliative treatment in 47 patients with colorectal cancer. Thirty-eight patients (81%) experienced good symptomatic effect from the treatment. Four complications occurred: three cases of perforation and one case of moderate bleeding. There was no mortality. It is concluded that laser treatment is a good palliative method in patients with colorectal cancer, especially in elderly patients with complicating diseases and in patients with local recurrence or symptoms from nonresected tumours.
