Ep 142 – Colorectal cancer
Manage episode 465267096 series 3528644
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the fourth most common malignancy in the UK and a major cause of morbidity and mortality. It refers to malignancies that arise from the caecum to the rectum and can be detected on screening, on imaging or endoscopy, or following presentation with change in bowel habit, iron deficiency anaemia or bowel obstruction. Its management depends on the stage of the disease and patient factors, with treatment options including surgical resection, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. In this episode, Dr Roger Henderson gives an overview of CRC and looks at how to achieve early diagnosis, which is essential for effective treatment and the greatest chance of survival.
