Patients and Methods: National Surgical Quality Improvement Program User Data for right colectomy and abdominal perineal resection (APR) procedures for cancer between 2006 and 2012 were analyzed. Concomitant infectious complications and timing of UTI diagnosis, inpatient versus outpatient, were considered. Results: We identified 7,615 right colectomies with 107 (1.4%) UTIs and 2,493 APRs with 88 (3.5%) UTIs (p
