Overview

Colorectal cancer is a type of cancer that develops in the colon and rectum, which are parts of the large intestine. It is the third most common type of cancer in men and women and is responsible for thousands of deaths each year. Early detection is the key to successful treatment, and screening is recommended for all adults older than 50. Common symptoms of colorectal cancer include abdominal pain, blood in the stool, unintentional weight loss, and changes in bowel habits. If left untreated, colorectal cancer can spread to other organs in the body. Treatment options vary depending on the stage and severity of the cancer but may include surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy.
