Critical Reviews in Oncology/Hematology, 2010
Colon cancer is one of the leading tumours in the world and it is considered among the big killers, together with lung, prostate and breast cancer. In the recent years very important advances occurred in the field of treatment of this frequent disease: adjuvant chemotherapy was demonstrated to be effective, chiefly in stage III patients, and surgery ...

Cyclooxygenase and Colon Cancer
Prostaglandins & Other Lipid Mediators, 2001There is considerable interest in the involvement of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in colon carcinogenesis and its progression, because nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) reduce mortality from colon cancer and COX-2 is one of the known targets of NSAIDs. COX-2 mRNA and protein levels are increased in colon cancer tissues from patients and in some

The American Journal of Surgery, 1961
Abstract 1. 1. Improvements in methods for timely diagnosis of colon cancer have fallen far behind the considerable achievements in the operative treatment of this malignancy. 2. 2. Roentgenography of the colon and sigmoidoscopy should be used more often in the examination of patients. 3. 3.

European Journal of Cancer, 1995
Alternative splicing of ten different variant exons (v1-v10) is responsible for the creation of a large number of different CD44 surface proteins. Some of these proteins play decisive roles in the metastatic spread of rat tumours. Also in human cancers, CD44 splice variants are frequently expressed in advanced states of tumorigenesis.

Colonic Cancer in Ulcerative Colitis and Idiopathic Colonic Cancer
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1965Carcinomas of the colon and rectum that develop in patients with chronic ulcerative colitis (CUC) are believed to differ in several ways from those that are observed in the general population (hereafter known as normals). Generally, they are considered to be more common, to develop more frequently in the proximal colon, to occur in younger patients ...

Colon cancer screening, lifestyle, and risk of colon cancer
Cancer Causes & Control, 2000Sigmoidoscopy screening and fecal occult blood (FOB) tests have been demonstrated as effective ways to reduce mortality from colorectal cancer. However, most studies of colorectal cancer screening and cancer mortality have not taken into consideration lifestyle factors that could account for the observed associations.

Laparoscopic colon resection for colon cancer
Journal of Surgical Research, 2004Laparoscopic colon resection for cancer is as yet an unproven operation. This review article summarizes current data on the topic.A Medline review identified articles published since 1990 summarizing patients with potentially curable colon cancer who underwent a laparoscopic-assisted colon resection.

Medical Hypotheses, 2000
Epidemiological findings on the relation between foods and colon cancer are inconsistent. Many, but far from all, found positive associations for meat and fat and negative ones for vegetables and fruits. Explanations so far have focused on direct biochemical conversions in the colon or transit time, but they remain unable to explain the contradictory ...

Cholecystectomy and colonic cancer
Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1984In a case-control study of cholecystectomy and carcinoma of the colon conducted in a residential retirement community near Los Angeles, California, no significant association was found, either for all colonic cancer (relative risk = 1.2) or by subsite (relative risk = 0.8 for right-sided colonic cancer and 1.3 for other colonic cancer). Because of this

Endoscopy, 2000
The superiority of colonoscopy to double-contrast barium enema in detecting neoplasia was finally demonstrated in 2000, but colonoscopic surveillance programs are still based on short-term observations and are mostly inadequate, despite the prospective design of the trials. The evaluation of the diagnostic accuracy of virtual colonoscopy is in progress,
