What is Colorectal Cancer?
Colorectal cancer is a cancer that develops in the colon or rectum, which are parts of the large intestine. It often begins as a small growth called a polyp, some types of which can become cancerous over time.
Regular screening can help identify precancerous polyps or colorectal cancer at an earlier stage. Treatment options depend on factors such as the cancer's location, stage, overall health, and individual treatment requirements.
Our specialists provide detailed evaluation and explain the available treatment options so patients and their families can make informed healthcare decisions.
