cancer of the colon

Cancer of the colon and rectum (colorectal cancer) strikes approximately 155,000 Americans every year, and one out of every 25 people in the United States will develop colorectal cancer. Over 56,000 deaths from colorectal cancer will occur this year. It is second only to cancer of the lung in frequency as a killer. The incidence of colorectal cancer increases with age, starting at age 40. Colorectal cancer is the most prevalent internal cancer, affecting men and women in almost equal numbers. Among the risk factors are: age (over 40); low fiber; high fat diet; family history of colorectal cancer, polyps, and personal history of inflammatory bowel disease.
